Horses have been a part of parades for decades before now there are a lot of people actually look forward to seeing the horses and our kids get to participate in something that is positive.

I grew up going to parades in Natchez. I can remember standing back at the end and watching the horses walk through. That’s been part of going to parades! I think now that children are more into rodeos that that part of the parade should be brought back! People who don’t want to see the horses leave and that should be fine but those people like me, who want to look at those beautiful animals think they deserve to be shown off too!

I love horses and the riders are part of the community and should be allowed to participate in the parades even if they have to get the bags to collect the manure like the horses pulling the carriages around Natchez

I now ride myself , and i remember strictly going to the parades to see the horses at the end . They’re a beautiful site to see and great inspiration for the young community. It’s always been a dream of mine to ride in the parade seeing the kids faces light up as mine once did knowing that one day their time would come , but know i fear that’s been taken . Also knowing that this is apart of history - Black History at that is reason in itself. That too i feel is being taken away . I also feel that riding is showing appreciation to the black cowboys and cowgirls who did it for us ! i could list reason after reason why this should’ve never been stopped , but it’s up to the person that’s reading these petitions to take a stand/action . READ THIS take this to heart and think about the broken hearts and damage that has been caused. Thank you !

Dealing with horses is something I have done since a kid and horses are a part of my life style today. A lot of kids do not get the privilege of being around animals that they can only see on television. It would be a great opportunity for the upcoming community children

Horses have always been a part of Natchez history. They are beautiful animals that should be shared during holidays with persons unable to own one ( in my case, several). I am not a native of Natchez, but ENJOY seeing and owning one.

Horses should be apart of all parades because they are important to us people and the kids wants to see them.

Shania Claiborne (Natchez,Mississippi , 2023-01-24)

I'm signing because even tho I don't own a horse I still have had the privilege of crossing up around them. Kids love to see horses. They were of main attraction during the time of parades. How are we as a city so much on history but deny the main transportation of the past? The street sweeper comes down after the parades to clean up, horses could even have waste catch bags to ensure no manure the streets. I don't understand why this is an issue when it's other places that continue to have horses. Why stop excitement of an event for the only because of your own personal opinions. That's not what working with the community is about.

The experience of participating and/or observing horses in parades in Natchez has been a time-honored tradition since and before my childhood. I can't recall a negative or dangerous incident. With careful planning and security, it should continue.

Riding a horse in a parade will not cause the community any harm. Stop putting restrictions on everything when it comes to us; there is a horse and carriage that travels downtown every day, but then it's no safety restrictions placed on it.

I grew up looking forward to seeing the horses in the parades every year. It was the best part of the event to me. When they stopped allowing people to ride their horses in the parades, there seemed to be no point in attending the parade at all. I mean, who wants to stand on the street for an hour or so watching people wave at you as they drive by? I’m an adult, so it’s not like I’m going to be trying to catch the candy they throw out.
