Something normal in 2020— Richlands Illuminated Christmas Parade is scheduled. As always the town is allowing horses to be in parade. Please see info on all horse entries. The town loves having horses in the parade! We hope to have alot of entries this year!
The local No Limits 4-H club is hosting the horses. This means they are managing the horse parking area and taking registration for riders.
Horses enter the parade right before The end of the line before Santa. All horses are staged in a designated parking area for easy access:-) All details on parking will be shared with registration.
Wagons, carriages are welcome- we are actually looking for someone that would be interested in pulling a wagon with the 4-H club members on it:-)
You may also walk/lead horses .
