The Greater Wausau Chamber of Commerce will host its second Holiday Parade Viewing Party presented by IncredibleBank from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Friday, December 5.
This family-friendly event is complimentary for members of the Chamber and their children. The Chamber’s train depot headquarters will offer a unique vantage point along the parade route to both see the floats and warm-up indoors or in a heated tent.
New at this year’s event, attendees are encouraged to bring new, unwrapped toys to this event. The Chamber will help Christmas In July collect items for children at the Marshfield Children's Hospital serving as a drop-off site for the toy drive beginning at the Holiday Parade Viewing Party through Wednesday, December 17. Toys can be delivered during this event or to the Chamber's offices on weekdays between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.
“This will be another great winter party and an opportunity for our members and their families to gather on Clarke Island,” said Dave Eckmann, President/CEO of the Chamber.
The Holiday Parade itself is organized by Wausau Area Events.
