PRESCOTT – “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” is the theme of this year’s Prescott-Nevada County Chamber of Commerce’s Christmas Parade.

The parade is scheduled for 6 p.m. on Dec. 6. Jamie Hillery, executive director of the Chamber, said this year’s route will be extended, but hasn’t completely been worked out yet.

The Chamber invites civic clubs, churches and other organizations to participate by entering a float. She also encourages individuals to enter their all-terrain vehicles in the parade.

Following the parade will be Christmas on the Square. Hillery said several churches have been contacted and are expected to have their children’s choirs perform. Anyone interested in singing at Christmas on the Square can contact Hillery at 870-887-2101.

Santa will be inside the courthouse and parents can take pictures of their children with the jolly old elf.

According to Hillery, the Junior Auxiliary will be providing cookies and hot chocolate for the event.
