Two Christmas Parades Today

 You could go to two parades in one day.

The Lancaster Santa Claus parade on the west side will get underway this afternoon at 1:00pm. It moves along Manawagonish Road to Main Street and then down Ready to Catherwood before making the turn onto Fairville Boulevard, finishing up at the former Co-op store. Non-Perishable food items will be collected during the parade for local food banks as well as letters for Santa. The awards for the best floats will be handed out at 4:00 in the lobby of Sobeys.

In the KV, the parade starts at 6:00pm. It'll make it's way down the old Hampton Road to the intersection of Marr Road and Clark Road. Aaron Kennedy from the Town of Quispamsis tells CHSJ News it's the 14 year for the event. Non-perishables food items will be collected for the KV food basket along with letters for Santa.
