HOCO TAILGATING INFO

 Thank you for reserving a tailgating spot for the HOCO Parade. This page will contain all the info you need to have a HOCO Tailgating Spot. Read alllllll the way to the bottom!

ANY UPDATES or CHANGES will be right here at the top of the page! 

Reminders:

  • Setup for tailgate spots start at 5 p.m. Before that, the area is impacted by student and staff parking/traffic, and your spot may be blocked. 

  • Note that Eagle Spirit Lane will be closed to outside traffic at 6:25p.m., in anticipation of the parade’s 6:30 p.m. start time.

  • All participants should park only in designated parking areas and walk to the tailgate spots. Tailgate spots do not have room to accommodate vehicles or trailers of any kind.

  • All food you choose to have at your tailgate spot must be already cooked! No grilling or cooking allowed. 

  • It’s a good idea to bring shopping bags for kids to use to hold their candy! 

  • PLEASE HELP keep your party safe! Keep your kids in your general area, and back from the parade floats. This year parade walkers will be tossing candy. Please ensure that your kids are safely interacting with parade participants, including not throwing candy back at the vehicles. 

  • Do not let kids run from one point on the parade route to another to get the most candy – this greatly diminishes how much is left for the last stretch of parade watchers! 

  • Just like when you go camping, you’re responsible to pack it in & pack it out! Bring your own trash can/bags and completely clean your area and the roadway around you before you leave or walk up to the pep rally, so we can continue to use these facilities next year!
