  • Your entry must have a large, obvious sign with your unit number displayed.  This is for the announcers.
  • At the end of the parade, please move out of the way as quickly as possible.  This is for the safety of your people and the marchers right behind you.
  • Remember, we are all marching to pay tribute to our nation's heroes. If any part of the parade process becomes challenging, remember this:  We are not suffering or sacrificing nearly as much as the people for whom we are marching!

Rain Policy

The decision to cancel the parade is made by the Naperville Police Department just prior to the parade.  The intent is to march unless rain is very bad or the weather is dangerous. A cancellation will be communicated through the Naper Notify system*, email, and the parade website (if time allows for posting).
