The parade will be Saturday, December 3rd starting at 6 pm with line up for the lighted parade starting at 5pm near NE 7th and Bedford Road. The theme this year is “A Magical Christmas”. There will be cash prizes and trophies awarded. Entries must be decorated with lights to be eligible for prizes.

There will also be a cash prize ($100) and traveling trophy for the best lighted window display at a Main Street business. Float judging will take place during lineup. In order not to confuse the little ones, the committee requests Santa’s not be part of ANY parade entry. Santa will make his appearance at the end of the parade line up. Following the parade, Santa will visit with children at Home Building Savings Bank, 200 N.E. 2nd Street. There will be cookies, candy canes and hot chocolate available.
