I wasn't kidding-we do it up right! *Now here's a little helpful hint for the kiddies in the crowd. We DO still toss candy from floats in the parade, but since kids tend to do the throwing, the candy is gone before the end of the parade route. If you snag one of the coveted spots on 49 near Caldwell Road, bring a bag to collect your candy and enjoy the show!
