As much as we enjoy these events they do take alot of work. Participation is greatly encouraged. Please consider entering your buisness or your family in the Parade. We have many people who reminisce about the parade and how they look forward to it year after year. Lets make this Parade be the best it can be. Yes it will be cold, but think of the warmth and memories you can bring to children or adults in our little town. Thank you and Happy holidays! Please and thank you.
