During the final stages of preparation, a variety of seeds, bark, fruits and vegetables, grasses and of course, flowers are being applied to the floats by experienced professionals as well as hard-working volunteers.

In most cases a 4-hour volunteer commitment is required. Most float builders have minimum age requirements, typically at least 13 years old to participate and must be accompanied by an adult. All volunteer decorators will be required to sign a waiver. Dress appropriately—float decorating can be messy, and you may get glue, paint and/or dirt on your shoes and clothing. Wear old clothes and comfortable close-toed shoes and bring a jacket as it can get cool in the evenings.

All volunteer decorating opportunities are organized directly by float builders and vary. Please visit each website for requirements, scheduling and how to sign-up to volunteer.
