Not just Floating: March, Walk, or Cruise, or Coast!



Instead of being limited to the standard float, your possibilities are endless! Your "float" could be a...


  • Drill Team



  • Band



  • Group of Animals (horses, dogs...trained parrots, anyone?)



  • Car, Truck, or Trailer



  • Group of Bicycles



  • Something even better you can think of!



But, let's say you want to make a traditional float. Click here for instructions on building a small float platform. This float-making tutorial comes from some parade pros at the Portland Rose Festival. You can use their tips for making a couple mini floats, letting each of your group members in on the action.


By now, you should be feeling inspired! Send us some hints on what you're making; we'll do our best to keep it under wraps!


Good luck!
