Santa Coming To Gurdon Dec. 10

Published Wednesday, December 1, 1999 in the Gurdon Times

Christmas will officially begin in Gurdon as Santa Claus makes his way through downtown during the Christmas parade scheduled for December 10.

The theme for this year's parade is 'Christmas Past and Visions of a New Millennium.'

There will be a Christmas program on the bandstand downtown starting at 4:30 p.m. The parade will begin at 5:30 p.m. and line up will begin at 4:45 p.m. at the old middle school.

Schools, organizations, churches and businesses are encouraged to participate in the parade. Merchants are encouraged to participate by staying open late, planning sales and serving refreshments.

This year's categories will be floats: first through fifth places; decorated vehicles: first through third places; and ATV/bicycles: first and second places. This year there will be a first and second place for the best decorated Chamber member business.

Entries will be judged on the basis of overall appearance, creativity and theme. For entry forms or more information, call Tambra Smith at 353-2514 or 353-2541.
