Emporia’s 44th Community Christmas Parade will take place shortly after Thanksgiving.
The Emporia Area Chamber of Commerce has announced Nov. 29 as the parade date. The theme will be “A Joyful Christmas.”
As has been the case for years, festivities begin with the dedication outside the Trusler Business Center, 719 Commercial, shortly after 6 pm. The parade itself begins at 7 pm at the intersection of Fourth and Commercial.
Residents, organizations and businesses wanting to enter a parade float may go online at https://emporiakschamber.org/christmas-parade or pick them up at the Trusler Business Center. Entries must be submitted by Nov. 14.
An announcement on the parade marshal will be made later.
