ATTENTION MOTOR VEHICLES Do not violate California Vehicle Codes. No dangerous stunts are allowed. Safety of our spectators is our foremost concern.
FOR EVERYONE’S SAFETY Do not throw souvenirs or candy from vehicles. You may walk and hand out candy or souvenirs if you wish. Just think safety when you do. Thank you for your cooperation!!
