2017 Peppermint Parade Application
Knox’s annual Peppermint Parade will take place on December 2nd this year but the application deadline to be a part of the parade is coming soon. Applications were originally due on Wednesday, November 22nd but the deadline has been extended to allow more people to sign-up.
There is no registration fee but applicants are required to share their contact information, the name of their organization, a brief description and they must specify whether they are entering as a church, a non-profit, a business or as an individual. This year, the Peppermint Parade will feature a reviewing station and a winner will be selected from each specific category and one will be chosen for best overall holiday spirit.
This year, the event will feature more than the parade. Santa Claus will be set up in Wythogan Park for pictures with the kids and there will be free hot cocoa, cider and s’mores. There will also be a Christmas tree lighting ceremony in the park at 5 p.m.
If you have any questions about the application or if you wish to donate a tree for the lighting ceremony, call the Knox Mayor’s Office at 574-772-4553
