Dec 7th, Watkinsville Christmas parade

[Hobug]

This year's Christmas Parade in Watkinsville is December 7.

The theme is 'Walking in a Winter Wonderland in Watkinsville'.

Make plans now to be there.

Buy your candy now. Leftover Halloween candy is cheaper than 'new' Christmas candy.

We are planning on being there.

We are also going to be there.

Everybody's going to miss the Chalk Bus, though

We will line up on Depot St. at 10:00. I am still waiting for our entry # to be assigned.

As with past years, we can meet behind the Watkinsville McDonalds at 9:00am and ride to the line up spot together.

This year it appears that they are serious about not having candy thrown from parade entries. They want people to walk along side entries and hand out candy. I believe that we have a couple of young folks that are willing to walk and give out candy. They can give out your candy (if you choose to bring candy) or you can have someone from your car walk too.

The only other restriction is that there can be no live Santas   in any displays. That honor is reserved for the last float in the parade

We are entry #59. If you go to Depot St. tell them entry 59 and they will direct you. If you meet us at McDonalds we will go to the line up spot together.

The parade goes on rain or shine. Don't let a little water scare you away.

Latest forecast looks much better for tomorrow. Looks like Sunday will be the wet one. Saturday rain chances are going down. (says Fox 5)

Once again the Christmas parade was a good time! Thanks to everyone who participated. Here are a few pictures I took.
