“The parade route was a fiasco last year,” state event organizers on Alderson’s social media pages. “Our memorial bridge failed its inspection miserably and will require a large amount of funds and time to fix. As such, it is about to be closed to all ATV, alternative vehicles, and side by side traffic as well. Pedestrians are still allowed on the bridge, but no public vehicles of any type.”
The Christmas Parade will leave Virginia Street, proceed to Monroe Street North, then to Maple Avenue and back to Virginia Street ending at the Community Center where Santa will greet the folks and hand out treats. The Alderson FPC choir will delight those gathered with traditional Christmas songs! The Queen of Lights will light the traditional lights, tree, and star as always, except all will take place from the North end of the Memorial bridge before she turns up the street.
Come out and enjoy the beginning of the Christmas Season in “the Gem of the Hills.”
