Indiana’s annual kickoff to the holiday season will return to in-person celebrations this year with the Lucy Donnelly Holiday Parade and events at IRMC Park.
The central hub of activity tonight will be IRMC park, and event organizer Hastie Kinter said that close to 70 units are expected to take part in this year’s parade. She also talked about the energy among the crew helping to organize the event that is coming back to Downtown Indiana after a one-year hiatus due to the Covid-19 Pandemic.
Activities are set to start around 5:00 at IRMC Park in Downtown Indiana with hay rides and kiddie train rides, along with a marshmallow roast and hot chocolate. At 5:30, the Indiana Junior High Pep Band will perform, and at 6:00, the massive Christmas Tree at IRMC park will be lit for the first time this holiday season. The parade will follow at 7:00 PM.
Police will close Philadelphia Street from 4th to 13th Streets tonight starting at 5:30. Indiana Borough Police Chief Justin Schawl is asking everyone who comes down tonight for the festivities to remain patient.
