Rantoul City School District 137 issued the following announcement on Oct. 25.
We have changed the Christmas Parade and Santa’s Workshop back to November 30. The Parade route will stay the same but the lineup/ marshaling/staging area will be the four streets in a square directly between Mitchell Ct and Riley Auto. Gibbs Dr borders on the west, and Twin lakes Dr borders on the east. ( Please see attached map )
Here is the map of the staging area (yellow) and parade route (blue) for Friday 11/30/18.
Parade line up will begin at 5 15 and the parade will step off at 6 PM on November 30 as originally planned. The parade will pause at Santa’s Workshop ( AKA The RACC Office ) where Santa will disembark and the rest of the parade will proceed to the Roger’s Parking lot. All participants in the parade are encouraged to return to Santa’s Workshop and participate in the festivities which will include music, laughter, visits and pictures with Santa, Reading with Mrs. Claus and multitudes of Good Will !!

We are accepting monetary donations for crafts, activities and supplies and donations of cookies or treats for the Workshop and if you would like to participate in the parade or volunteering as a Santa’s Helper in the workshop please let me know.
