Lighted Christmas Parade entry forms are out – parade is one night only!
Oskaloosa Main Street Lighted Christmas Parade
The Main Street office of the Oskaloosa Area Chamber and Development Group would like to invite you to participate in the 2015 Main Street Lighted Christmas Parade. The parade will be held Thursday night only, December 3rd at 7:00 pm.
The theme this year is “An Old Fashioned Oskaloosa Christmas”. Plan now to help Main Street make this 28th annual parade the BEST EVER. As always lighting your entry is a must, and of course you’ll want to identify your entry with a sign or a banner. For safety reasons candy or any other item must be handed out from the sidewalk, nothing can be distributed from the road! There is to be no solicitations. Contact the office for prior approval for any items to be distributed.
Best Overall traveling trophies & runner-up certificates will be awarded in nine categories: Business Classes- Small, Medium, & Large, Non-Profit, Church, Music, Individual, Out-Of-Town (non-52577 zip), Animals and Judges’ Choice. Judging criteria may include lights, theme, music, & originality. Judging will be held on Thursday night, with awards presented Friday December 4th at the Christmas Festival at Penn Central Mall at 6:30
