Downtown Whitewater, Inc invites you to participate in this year’s parade. Registration is available both online and by downloadable form here.

The 2018 parade theme is “A Very Merry Christmas”. Thirty years ago this year Disney released a holiday music album by the same title and Whitewater along with many communities around the country hosted holiday parades with the same theme. Not interested in participating in the parade but would love to be part of other events leading up to and surrounding the parade let us know! We’ll also have children’s activities, a holiday market, and more!

Many hands make light work and we’d love to have you be part of the team. Email us any questions or just to let us know you’d like to be part at director@downtownwhitewater.com.

To Whitewater and Beyond:
Blastoff Date 1868

With 150 years of success, we’re here to celebrate what Whitewater has accomplished and where the future will take us as we reach for the stars.
