🧡 Your Parade Participation Makes a Difference

The Cops & Kids Findlay Halloween Parade is more than one spectacular night of Halloween magic. It supports the work of the Fort Findlay FOP Lodge #20 Foundation, helping us build positive relationships between youth and law enforcement while supporting active, retired and fallen officers and their families throughout Hancock County.

Every float, marching band, volunteer, sponsor and cheering spectator helps us celebrate the people who serve our community and advance the Foundation’s Cops & Kids mission. That deserves all the confetti, candy and jazz hands we can muster! 🎉🍬✨🙌
