Blythewood Prepares for a Magical Winter Wonderland Christmas Parade on December 8

Blythewood Gears Up for Annual Christmas Parade!

Hey there, Blythewood! The excitement is building as our *beloved annual Christmas Parade* is just around the corner! Mark your calendars for Sunday, December 8 at 2 p.m. and get ready to celebrate the season with friends and family in downtown Blythewood.

A Theme of Joy and Wonder

This year’s parade theme is “Winter Wonderland,” and it promises to bring all the festive joy we’ve come to know and love! The atmosphere will be filled with magic as we watch the holiday spirit come alive with approximately 60 entries making their way down the streets. Can you imagine the sights and sounds that will fill the air?

What to Expect!

From the moment the parade kicks off, you will see a wonderful mix of entries featuring everything from local schools, sports teams, and clubs to businesses, civic organizations, and yes, even stunning horses! Expect to see dancing girls, musicians, and some fluffy puppies that will surely melt your heart. It’s going to be a dazzling display of community spirit that really showcases the best of Blythewood.

Imagine families gathered on the sidewalks, catching up with friends, sipping on hot cocoa, and watching in awe as the dazzling floats glide by. There will be something for everyone and, trust us, you won’t want to miss a second of the fun!

Celebrity Hosts

Adding to the excitement, we are thrilled to announce that *Dawndy Mercer Plank*, a retired WIS-TV news anchor, will be back again this year, serving as the parade’s emcee. Dawndy will be joined by Janet Moak, the advertising manager from WLTX-TV. They’ll be working their magic from two locations during the parade – the Blythewood Consignment Shop on Main Street and the Christian Assistance Bridge on Blythewood Road. Their lively commentary will surely keep the energy up and the spirits high!
