CHANGE TO NON-EQUESTRIAN JUDGING ONLY:
This year,  the judging for non-equestrian entries will be done at the staging areas between
8:30 am and 9:30 am on the day of the parade.  If you wish to be considered for an award, you must be at your staging area by 8:30am.  Winners will be announced during the parade as your entry goes by the viewing stand and you will be given the award at that time.

There is no change to the Equestrian judging. Pre-Judging will start at 8:00am at the BART Parking Lot and final selection will be made after all equestrian entries have passed the reviewing stand.  Please note, the announcement should be available about 15 min. after the parade is over (much faster than previous years).
