IMPORTANT MESSAGE:

Andover Road will be closed Saturday, September 27 starting at 9:45 a.m. for the parade from Andover High School south to Central Ave.; Central Ave. will be closed from Andover Road to Shay starting at the same time.

We encourage all parade entries to have a themed look centered around, "Sunflower State of Mind," so anything Kansas! What does being in the Sunflower State mean to you, your business, your group? We invite you to get creative and show your community support by decorating your float with the theme! All entries to the parade will be considered for the competition and we will be giving prizes for the best overall float and, new this year, the best golf cart float.
