The Kewanee Chamber of Commerce is seeking entries for Kewanee’s 17th Annual Lighted Christmas Parade set for Sunday, Dec. 3. The Christmas parade is the opening act for the annual lighting of Windmont Park and will make its way down McClure Street, bringing Santa along for the ride.

Executive Director of the KCOC Mark Mikenas is encouraging participants to go “all out” in their decorations in order to make this year a success. The chamber is seeking businesses, churches, organizations and schools who would like to be featured to join the lighted parade.

Need help or suggestions on how to light up your entry? Mikenas said people are welcome to call the chamber office for helpful tips and advice.

The parade will begin in the parking lot of the former Tenney Bowl and make its way down to the park. Entry forms are available at the chamber office at 113 E. 2nd St. and should be filled out and returned by mail or email to chamber@kewanee-il.com by Friday, Dec. 1. Participants are asked to have their float onsite by 4:30 pm. The parade begins at 5 pm and kicks off the Windmont Park lighting.
