The theme for the Elizabethtown Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting is “Hometown Holiday” in honor of the yearlong celebration of Elizabethtown’s 250. The parade and tree lighting will take place on Sunday, November 26, starting at 4 p.m.
Terri Dennison, Director of Communications and Marketing for Elizabethtown, announced that the Grand Marshalls will represent the longtime downtown retailers who continue to make the town a shopping destination.
Dennison added that businesses, organizations, and individuals are encouraged to create floats that interpret that theme for the Best Float Contest. Last year’s Best Float winner was Camp Clearwater.
The Parade will start at 4 p.m. on Sunday, November 26, at the Elizabethtown Town Hall, and travel east on Broad Street, then make a right turn onto Poplar St (Rt. 701S), ending at Swanzy Street. A grandstand and performance area will be set up in front of Leinwands on West Broad Street.
Santa will be at the end of the Parade and will be escorted to the Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony at the Courthouse around 5 p.m.
The deadline to register for the 2023 Christmas Parade is Friday, November 17. Copies of the entry form are available on the Chamber’s website (www.elizabethtownwhitelake.com), at the Elizabethtown – White Lake Area Chamber of Commerce’s office (207 E Broad St.) or Elizabethtown Hall.
