Today is the day the Lord hath made, we shall rejoice and be glad in it! Also, today is parade day!!!
The time has come and we are ready to show off our flag trucks, ATV’s, floats, side by sides, horses, classic/muscle cars, mud trucks, motorcycles, surrounding fire departments, and Yadkin Rescue Squad. This is when all the hard work pays off. Don’t miss out because today’s parade will be epic!
Don’t forget to stop by Hunter Farms anytime after 2pm to buy your port-a-pit lunch for $10.
There will be signs posted at the intersections of HWY 601/North Oak Ridge Church Rd, HWY 601/Speer Rd, and North Oak Ridge Church Rd/Speer Rd. They will point you in the direction to park along the sides of Speer Rd to watch the parade. Speer Rd will be closed at 4:45pm so please come early and find a good parking space.
Remember to pull your vehicles completely off the road so our larger trucks and floats can pass by. We will have local law enforcement and volunteers assisting in directing traffic along Speer Rd before the parade begins. We have around 200 parade participants and are expecting 400+ parade atttendees.
It will be dark as the parade is ending so please be careful exiting Speer Rd. There will still be little kids finding that last piece of candy. Please exit in the manner in which your car is facing. Everyone come out and enjoy the fun. We have room for everyone so come on out and enjoy the fun.
Also, for those participating in the parade, please be at 2003 North Oak Ridge Rd at 3pm to find out where your designated area for pre-parade parking and to grab a copy of the parade lineup. It is important you know when you will be entering the parade line. We have four separate parking locations for participants to best fit your needs. We will also have volunteers assisting her to ensure you get in line at the appropriate spot.
It’s time to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior and provide excitement and cheer to the kids and families in our surrounding communities. If you have any questions today, please feel free to call Jason Deal at 336.941.7006 and he can help answer any questions you have at this time.
God bless each one of you and may God Bless the United States of America! Merry Christmas from all of us at A Very Merry-Rona Christmas Parade.
