The Windsor Harvest Festival takes place Labor Day weekend with the parade being held at 9:00 am, September 6th, 2010, Labor Day Morning. There is a $30.00 entry fee that is used to help defer the cost of the organizing the parade. Entries received after August 1, 2010, are subject to a $10 late fee.

The line up for the parade will be at 1st Street, Chimney Park Drive, and Walnut Street by Universal Forest Products and Cemetery Baseball Field.

We have been asked by the Windsor Police Department to inform parade entrants (for safety of entrants and spectators) that the throwing of candy and other objects from vehicles is prohibited. Anyone wishing to pass these items out can do so by having individuals walking beside their entry. If any entrant is found throwing items they will be asked to leave the parade.
All horse drawn entries are required to have mounted outriders.
Car and Car Clubs- Display of speed, power-braking, squealing of tires, or weaving are STRICTLY PROHIBITED. All drivers must have a valid license and proof of insurance.
If you are a political entry, you are limited to 15 people per float (total of 30 people), and only 2 floats per political group. Due to problems in the past, this will be STRICTLY ENFORCED.
We have had a successful parade in the past and look forward to another one. We hope you will join us. If you have questions or concerns please contact us at the number listed below.
Please return the entry form as soon as possible, no later than August 1st. We cannot guarantee entries received after this date.
