Has anyone here ever put a light float in the Light Parade?

I am thinking about entering, though the link is not active yet and no one has answered my emails about it.

I have never done it before and I have some very cool ideas about what I can do :wink2: and I was looking for some input from those with experience at this event.

Thanks,

You mean the one the Saturday after Thanksgiving that goes through Old Town? Probably check with the CSD maybe ? I think they and the city coordinate it. Can’t imagine there are too many rules.

It happens around the Dickens Faire I think. Is that the one you are talking about? I haven’t seen it since the very first year long long ago.

no it’s not the city that coordinates it – I was emailing with Lynden his email address is: skyking@elkgrove.net We usually have about 400 girls in the parade, haven’t had a float before. I think it’s probably to early for him to even be thinking about the parade.

Yes, that is the email address the city gave me. I emailed him twice in the last few months but never got a reply. It is early for him to think about it, but getting late for anybody new to get something somewhat complicated together.

I have an idea that would spark it up a bit! :biggrin: 😮 :sarcastic

I know we could also drop off the forms somewhere on Dino, I’ll try and see if I can find the address some where or a phone number. He is also in charge of the EG Fireworks – so I’m sure he is into “sparks”

here is the address, 9864 Dino Dr. Suite 4, Elk Grove, CA. 95624 – but I don’t think he is there on a regular basis. Found his number I believe it’s his home number, I’ll send to you in a pm

Oh wow!! After seeing your lights on your home, We would totally go to the parade JUST to see your float. 🙂

I hate to admit it but I have an addiction… Lightshows that get people into the moment has been my drug of choice since Jr. High. I so am Jonesing for another fix! 👿

I don’t get to indulge that much these days.. but when I do, I wanna have some serious fun! :thumb

I hope Mr. King will allow me the latitude I would need for this one.. Could be so fun!
