  1. First and second place ribbons will be given in all categories. If you would prefer to compete for a possible first place trophy, a $10 trophy fee will be charged to offset the cost. Enclose the check with your registration form payable to Morton Loggers' Jubilee. This fee will enter individual units and fleet units for the parade.
  2. All entries registered with the parade chairman prior to July 26, 2007 will receive, by return mail, notification of their parade position and number.
  3. Individuals entering later than July 26, 2007 will be required to send a $5 late fee with trophy fee and registration. Late entries cannot be guaranteed that they will be lined up with their appropriated category. We will make every effort to include you in the parade properly, but cannot promise after this late date. Late entries can secure their individual parade numbers from the Parade Usher in the area designated on the day of the parade, normally somewhere near the corner of 7th and Westlake Ave.
