It’s a 50’s Christmas
Saturday, November 18, 2017 –
New Start Time – Noon
(Rain, Shine or Snow!)
Join the fun on Nov. 18 in historic downtown Mocksville for a day of festivities to mark the beginning of the holiday season. At noon, the Hometown Christmas Parade will begin with floats and decorated vehicles traveling down Main Stree. All parade entries must have a sign (minimum 12” x 12”) with the Number (Line-Up) placed on the left side (driver’s side) of the entry for judging. The Judges Stand will be in the Horn Oil parking lot.
The parade will begin on North Main Street; proceeding to the Historic Downtown Mocksville Square; turning left onto Depot Street. Dismantling will take place at the end of Depot Street and must not block movement of remaining parade.
Returning to North Main via Poplar Street will be prohibited to prevent backup on Main Street. Dismantling of tractor trailer trucks and parent pickups must take place in the vacant parking areas at the end of Depot Street. No tractor trailers will be permitted back on Main Street until the end of the parade. All vehicles must exit onto US 64 until the parade ends.
Space has been reserved for parade entries (except fire & EMS vehicles which line-up upon arrival on Poplar Street). Space is not reserved for other vehicles to use while decorating entries, and these vehicles will be towed out of designated reserved areas. Rich Park will be designated one way only. Vechicles must enter on Cemetery Street.
