The parade route will begin at Veterans Memorial Park at the end of Hannum Avenue. The parade will proceed up Hannum, turn right at Hoffman Road, left on Jennings Road, left on Eagle Point Road, left on Superior Street and end near the Rossford Community Recreation Center.
Residents should be aware that the roads listed will be blocked off during the parade for a brief period of time, she explained.

Float judging begins at 1 p.m., and monetary prizes will be awarded for floats placing first through third.
