2009 Ozark Christmas Parade - An Ozark's Yearly Event

Kay Van Kampen, CDPE, Broker, Springfield Missouri Real Estate: Real Estate Agent in Springfield, MO

The 2009 Ozark Christmas Parade is one of the largest parade in the Springfield area. This year is no different.2006 Christmas Parade

When I joined the Ozark Chamber of Commerce, the parade was one of the biggest events they handled. Over time, it was turned over to Main Street.

Main Street decided this year to cancel the parade and the Chamber quickly took it back. Christmas would not be the same without the Ozark Christmas Parade.

Starting at Highway 65, behind the old Fasco building, the parade will end up at the Ozark Square, about a mile and a half route. It starts at 6:00 P.M.

Along with the parade, the Ozark Parks Department will have the Christmas light on and the park will be filled with hot air balloons. A spectacular sight.

Merry ChristmasThe picture was our office's first float. Wait till you see what we have tonight. We'll take lots of pictures.

Come see all the floats, the bands, the 2009 Ozark Volley Ball State Champions, the horses, the cars and treat yourself to all the candy that will be handed out. Oh yes, and Santa Claus.

See you there.

Blue Springs, Missouri, centered approx. 20 miles east of downtown Kansas City, MO, and--FWIW--the hometown of American Idol David Cook, has just been recognized as one of 'America's Best Places to Raise Your Kids: 2010' by BusinessWeek Magazine. Reasons cited include award-winning schools, great community amenities, convenient location, and affordability.

And, in a double-win for the region, Runner-up Lee's Summit, Missouri (Musical luminary Pat Metheny's hometown!), is located about 13 miles southwest of Blue Springs.
