Published details checked online. Contact responsiveness and live booking availability have not been confirmed.

What was checked & what still needs confirmation

Listing page header still says 'Stay tuned for 2026 holiday information!' but the printed weekdays match the 2026 calendar and the parade registration form is named 11282026. Individual detail pages on the same site are stale (e.g., 'Saturday, November 25', '95th Annual'), so the listing page is the source. No fee printed; viewing public parks is free. Address given is North Straub Park.
