The Lions Club was pleased to be able to stage our annual parade on the streets of Georgetown again this year. The parade followed our tried and true route of travelling along Guelph St. to Mill Street then Charles to the the Georgetown Fairgrounds.
This allowed spectators to gather along the 5km route and be able to practice social distancing while enjoying the many floats, marchers, bands and of course Santa Claus.
The Georgetown Lions Club Parade started in 1932 and has been a continuous event since that time.
The Lions Club encourage you to think of others at this time of year and ask that you make a donation of food or cash to the Georgetown Bread Basket Food Bank.
While the Town of Halton Hills provides assistance with the event the Lions are fully responsible for the oganization and costs of operating the parade.
Route
The parade will form up on Sinclair Ave. and proceed west on Guelph Street to Mill St. It will follow Mill St. through historic Downtown Gerogetown, then turning left on Charles St. to the Georgetown Fairgrounds Park where the parade will disband.
Registration
We invite you to register for the parade, as a family, group of friends or an organization no experience is necessary.
Registration Form Will be Available in Septemeber 2022
Sponsorship
Like all community events the Lions Club relies on civic minded businesses for their support, In 2017 we introduced a new category of sponsorship called Community Champions and with their support the Club was able to operate the event. As part of their sponsorship the company names were placed on the Lions Events Trailer.
