Sure, it’s only September but have you noticed the displays in some Gainesville stores lately? Halloween is still about two months away and Thanksgiving three but already we’re being reminded of Christmas. And, not to be left out, so are the planners for the city’s annual Christmas on Green Street parade.
If you are interested in entering a float or antique car, or participating as a high-school marching band or dance group, there’s a form organizers say you need to fill out ASAP to secure early registration pricing: https://www.eventeny.com/events/vendor/?id=49598
This year’s parade is slated for Sunday, Dec. 6.
Registration has also opened for the second annual Santa Sprint, a one-mile fun run/brisk walk that leads off the parade: https://runsignup.com/greenstreetsantasprint.
