Float

The float sign is a sign provided to every float, which has their organisation/individual name (as applicable), marshalling location and Parade number.

Since this is only collected once at registration on Parade day (evening), no work can be done with this until at the Marshalling Area immediately prior to the Parade.

This will require holes to be drilled and signage/props attached.
