Parade starts at 6:30 pm at the corner of Cypress St. and Mill Rd. and will march up town where the children will be able to trick or treat in the downtown shops.  Applications to participate in the parade can be downloaded by clicking registration form.  All groups and individuals are invited to participate.

PARADE RULES
No alcoholic beverages, firearms, explosives.  No obscene or objectionable dress or displays are permitted.  This is a family event!  Vehicles must maintain a safe distance from pedestrian traffic in the parade line and spectators.  Any infraction will result in being pulled from the parade line.  We would ask that all participants refrain from smoking during staging and the parade due to the flammable nature of costumes and floats.  Please comply!

Each entry in a division will display their respective number in an obvious manner for Judging purposes. Judges will be awarding prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in all categories. Winners will be notified by mail and announced via the Historic Kennett Square website, and posted at the Kiosk in the Genesis Walkway (next to Currie Salon).

Staging (where to meet and to line up): All registered participants will be contacted by Oct 27 to confirm your entry. There will be a place for display/performance at the Judge's Stage at the intersection of State & Union. Parade start time is 6:30 pm so plan to arrive early!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!
