FAIRBURY, NE — Jefferson County Fair organizers are asking for businesses to enter into the fair’s parade.

The parade is set for Sunday, July 19th at 2:00 p.m. with line-up at 1:30. Organizers say they’re hoping to include floats, collectible cars, tractors, trucks, horses, music and clowns in the event. They say the parade offers an opportunity for businesses to promote themselves.

Parade participants must stay in their vehicle or float. They cannot hand out items during the parade.

The parade starts at the fairgrounds, heads north to 5th Street, then turns west towards downtown. The parade returns to the fairgrounds by heading east on 4th Street.

 

Participants must pre-register by calling 402-641-1153 or 402-729-3667.

The parade is new in 2020 and is part of the fair’s efforts to provide safe entertainment during the pandemic.
