1. Start with an IDEA that fits the Wet & Wild Theme

2. Scale your idea, to fit your resources

   • Are you making a costume?

   • Are you building a float, if so, on what type of structure or vehicle will you build upon?

3. Find your resources/materials

   • Before you buy anything, look around your residence or office spaces. Think about recycled materials, old sheets, or fabrics, repurposed garments or seasonal decorations.

Many hands make quick work

1. Recruit friends and family to help the vision come to life!

2. The more people the more ideas (and hands) you have to achieve the vision.

3. Everyone who contributes will bring their pride and enthusiasm to the parade, creating an exciting atmosphere for attendees and participants alike.

Think about how to use line, shape, and value to create fun and interesting patterns on your costumes or floats.
