Glinda will have extra sea creature masks, wigs, and other costumes and accessories available. We’ll have face paint and sparkles to razzle dazzle frizzle up your look! Come as prepared as you can - beachy and 90s colorful as a base. If you need some last minute outfit help and shimmer, we gotchya!
Feel free to bring extra on theme decor that you might have, or some thing cute and Frizzly to hang on the bus for the parade, or related gifts to bribe the judges!
You may keep a small bag inside the bus for the parade.
During the parade you will be either -
- parading/swimming around the bus interacting with the crowd
- riding inside poking your head out / waving out out a window, Magic School Bus style
- Or riding on the roof!
We’ll be assigning your area of focus day-of based on your costume and preference, and there can be switch offs.
