Costs this year are far servicing for uss again. In regard to the float promoting PoCo's 75th birthday I talked to Tim Enno, Byack Festival Association. Be said that, the costs for a float are determined by the amount decided in your budget. With this figure you approach display builders with the budgeted amount, your theme and a k for two or mare ideas fram each. Usually you ask for ane serious idea and a fun ons. From these designs you select what you want. Mr. Enno recommended a couple of names for contacting and said not to exclude local designers.
