Two Year Float Registration Rules
1. A person can pre-register a float slot one year in advance by paying the next years fee during the current preregistration period. This would allow the person to hold their same slot for the following year. All payments are non-refundable once paid. 2. The following year, if you want to keep your same slot, you must reregister your float at time of the preregistration. In other words, you would always be paid one year in advance, if you wish to keep the same slot. 3. If you keep your same slot and reregister one year ahead, you and only you, can reregister your float for the following year. You must appear in person to reregister. 4. If you fail to appropriately reregister your float for the following year, you forfeit your slot and any funds you previously paid. Your slot then becomes immediately available for sale to someone else. 5. If you pay one year in advance, your slot is not transferrable to anyone else the following year or at anytime in the future. 6. If you do not show up for line up for the current year, you forfeit your slot and payment for this year. Your next years slot will still be yours but, but you lose everything for the current year. You must still appear in person the following year at pre-registration to reregister your float. You can also pay for another year at that time to reserve your slot.

You Must Remain In Your Designated Order During The Entire Event. Only 1 trailer / wagon can be pulled per vehicle.
The driver of each float / wagon will be subject to a random Police Field Sobriety Test throughout the Run.

Note that the Church Point Saddle Tramp Riders Club, Inc., sponsors of the Church Point Courir de Mardi Gras can refuse to issue a permit to anyone without cause or reason.
