The parade will begin at 11am at 14th & Swift, heading north to Armour Road, turn east on Armour to Howell, then head south before disbanding at 18th Avenue.
Debbie Van Pelt-McEnroe will announce at the intersection of Armour & Swift, and Harry Baker will announce from the judge’s reviewing stand on Armour Road near Howell.
Between the parade and barbecue contest, $50,000 will be given away in prizes on Snake Saturday. $30,000 of that will go to the best charity floats in the parade, with a $7,000 1st place prize in the charity division.
