Added for the 86th year: Announcer on Main Street, Dayton. Let us know if you want us to say anything specific when your float goes by. Great publicity - and have we mentioned FREE!!!
Example: “Skoglund Auto is a family business in Dayton that has been in business for over forty years. We know it’s hot outside today, but snow is just around the corner - See John or Eric for your snowblower needs.” If you’d like this added service, let us know - Call (515) 571-1666
OUR GOALS:
***MORE business involvement - Promote your business to hundreds of watchers and support
Dayton at the same time! You might even win a cash prize!!!
**MORE band/music - What’s a parade without bands? 76 trombones and all that.
***MORE school involvement - Brag about successes, promote programs, put those smiling faces on a float! If you’ve asked us for support in the past (buying ads in programs, yearbooks, etc; phone-a-thons and more!) - Consider supporting us on Labor Day! And then, stick around for Monday’s rodeo. Monday is ‘Kids Get in FREE” Day. Check out the carnival too!
