BLYTHEWOOD – The Blythewood Christmas Parade is going to be held at 3 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 8. The parade, which is sponsored by The Blythewood Chamber of Commerce, will take a new route this year.

According to Parade Chairwoman Kristin Jewell, there is no entry fee to participate in the parade. But participants must register. Deadline for parade entries is Friday, Nov. 29. Both parade entry forms and sponsor forms are available at [email protected]. All entries must have a seasonal decoration (bow, wreath, etc.) and must be approved by the Parade Committee.
Emcee for the parade will be WIS-TV news anchor Dawndy Mercer and the Grand Marshall will be Joe Pinner.
