Parade Entry Form and Sponsor/Donor Form

Parade Entry Forms

NEW -- We are making some changes for the 2009 Parade entry applications. This year we will ONLY have the application on line. We will no longer be using printed applications. Please Open the ONLINE form, below. Fill it in on your screen and SUBMIT it by clicking SUBMIT at the bottom. ALL blanks must be filled in before you can submit the form. We also use SPAM protection to keep the spam-bots from using our form. You must enter the characters you see in the box at the bottom of the form. This keeps NON-humans from using the form.

Filling out this form does NOT mean that your entry will automatically be included in the Christmas Parade. All requests will be reviewed by the Parade Committee. Either way, your application will be acknowledged by the Parade Comittee via E-Mail within a week of submission. You will be notified of your section and position number by December 5th. This year we WILL be posting the lineup on line. A link will be posted HERE by December 5th

Donors and Sponsors

You will also find here the Sponsor/Donor form to submit a donation of cash, services, supplies, entry sponsorship etc. We are a 100% NON profit, volunteer organization and we want all sponsors and donors to know that we could not have a parade without your generosity. We do not impose an entry fee to participate in our parade and we would like to continue with this tradition. It is your generosity that allows us to put on what is well becoming the largest daytime Christmas parade on the Eastern Shore, if not in the entire state.

We invite you to join the many other businesses and community organizations in the area and become a sponsor of this event. We need your help. With the costs of permits, insurance, transportation, postage, and so much more that is required in order to hold a parade like this, the parade committee needs your help. Can you help us with a generous contribution? If your orginazation requires a letter from the committee, please click HERE for a copy you can print.( Adobe Reader required )

In 2008 we started something new. We are providing ad space on our web page and a line in the handouts. The AD size is based on the value of the contribution. ADs will appear on our sponsor recognition pages. The top tier sponsors will also appear on our home page. [ Details? ]

All sponsors will now be rewarded with FREE Ad space. Your ad will appear right here on our web page for everyone to see. Sponsors responding before we print our handouts will also have a line in the hand out on the Sponsor page.

We will have 4 major tier levels of sponsors as outlined below. Each Tier level will earn a different amount of ad space. It is an exciting new way to give back to our sponsors.

The top four levels will even have links back to their own WEB Pages or E-Mail for those with links. Please see AD details below for requirements.

The levels are as follows:

Tier Level Tier Name Donation AD Space

ONE Blizzard $1000. or more FULL Width AD

TWO Snowman $500. up to $999. One Half Width AD

THREE Snowball $250. up to $499. One Third Width AD

FOUR Snowflake $100. up to $249. One Fourth Width AD

FIVE Honorable
Mention Up to $99. One TEXT line beneath Display ADS

Donation amount is the amount of cash plus the retail value of tangible donations
