PUTNAM — The Holiday Dazzle Light Parade Committee says all systems are go for the 21st annual Holiday Dazzle Light Parade Nov. 27 in downtown Putnam.
The 21st annual Holiday Dazzle Light Parade will step off at 5 p.m. Nov. 27th, at the Grove Street monument and will follow Grove Street, merging right onto South Main Street, left onto Front Street (through the center of downtown Putnam), right onto Kennedy Drive (at Cargill Falls) and will travel past Rotary Park and Riverfront Commons on Kennedy Drive, taking a right onto Providence Street and will end at the Putnam Municipal Complex at the corner of Providence and School streets.
The rain date is Dec. 4.
This year, Rawson Materials and the Putnam Rotary Club will be honored as Grand Marshals. Rawson Materials is celebrating its 75th year and the Putnam Rotary Club will be celebrating its 100th anniversary.
The starting line is at the Grove Street monument and entries will start lining up at 2 p.m. on parade day. The staging area is from Grove Street to Killingly Avenue.
Once again this year, the parade committee will present a “litter-free parade.” Before the parade begins, an army of volunteers from Green Valley Church of Putnam will hand out trash bags donated by The Last Green Valley. At the conclusion of the parade, volunteers will walk the parade route, picking up trash bags from the crowd and depositing the bags into a Town of Putnam Public Works truck.
The parade is produced by the Town of Putnam, Green Valley Crossing and WINY Radio.
