We look forward to this every year and we know you do too! Be safe and keep your kids from darting into traffic. Parade participants, please have walkers passing out your candy or make sure to throw it as far back away from the street as possible. 

PLEASE NOTE: **This is a beloved community event in support of our school district, our athletes and our students. We reserve the right to refuse entry into the parade for any submission/registration that we deem to be counter productive to the celebration of RAM pride and community connectivity.**
