Forest County Christmas Parade

10/04/2024

The 2024 Forest County Christmas Parade is going to the next level for year number 2! We now have a theme for all entrants! Picked by the Big Guy himself, the theme this year is........ "North Pole Fantasy"

What does that mean, you ask? Well, let me tell you!
Entrants are asked to decorate their floats/vehicles to match the theme by fantasizing how their business/company/group they represent would look at the Ole North Pole! Entrants will be judged via a set of criteria. (Stay tuned for an announcement on that as long as other important logistic updates) There will also be prizes for the winners!
