Parade floats are a great way to showcase your organization or group to the community. However, it's important to follow certain rules to ensure everyone's safety and enjoyment. Here are four rules for parade float attendees:

1. Follow the route: Floats are required to follow a designated route, and attendees should not deviate from it. Stay within the boundaries and be mindful of other floats and participants.

2. Stay on the float: Attendees should remain on the float at all times. Do not jump off the float. This is for your safety and the safety of others.

3. Throw beads with caution: In conclusion, while throwing Mardi Gras beads from a parade float can be a fun and exciting tradition, it is important to do so with caution. By throwing the beads gently, from a safe distance; we can ensure that everyone can enjoy the celebration safely.

4. Respect other floats: Be courteous to other floats and their participants. Do not block their view or interfere with their performance.

Have fun: Most importantly, have fun! Enjoy the experience and be proud of your organization or group.
