The holiday season officially arrives in Mt. Carmel this weekend with two of the city’s premier events. Tonight, Christmas Uptown returns after being COVID-cancelled last year and organizer Brenda Bobbitt is expecting a big event from 4 to 9 on Market Street…
Christmas Uptown highlights include carriage, train, and pony rides; free photos with Santa, in addition to family games, great food, live music, and a lot more.
Tomorrow, the Wabash County Chamber of Commerce will host their 55th annual Christmas parade starting at 5:15. The lighted parade begins at 3rd and Market Streets will proceed north to 8th Street. The Sights and Sounds of Christmas is the theme of this year parade. Last COVID caused the Chamber to hold a reverse parade in which the entries were stationary while spectators drove by in their vehicles.
