Everyone and anyone is welcome to join us in the parade on Saturday December 1st. Our cost of admission was picked up by Pinnacle Orthopedics, (Thanks guys!), so no worries in that area. We'd love to have more riders show up to make our presence known. We need a couple of people willing to walk to hold a banner the entire time. You are welcome to ride or walk but we encourage everyone to bring your favorite ride and let Paulding County know what we are all about. Bring your kid's and let them ride too. If you have a highwheeler, boneshaker, or any other unique bicycle please bring/ride them.
What is the theme of the 2007 parade?
The theme is Celebrating the 175th Birthday of Paulding. It is imperative that each entry conform to the spirit of the event and should promote the Holiness of Christ¡¦s birth. (No drinking!)
When does the parade begin?
The parade begins at 3:00 PM and should be over by 5:30 PM
Can we have Santa on our float?
No. No group or entry except that of the Sponsors will be permitted to include Santa Claus on its float or in its theme.
Where does the parade begin and what is the route?
The parade staging area stretches from Dallas Elementary School, through the Board of Education building and extends to the parking lot of Henderson Collision. Horses and other groups may be staged at other areas, e.g., Chattahoochee Tech campus. The parade will end at the Courthouse Square, approximately 8/10 of a mile.
How long does the parade last?
Usually the parade is over by 5:30 PM.
What if there is snow/rain?
The parade will happen regardless of the weather. We¡¦ve had 70 degrees with sun and we¡¦ve had 20 degrees with snow. No matter the weather, the parade will happen. (We will probably be set up near the rear of the parade so dress accordingly.)
