Though he made an appearance at the recent lighting ceremony for Christmas on the Cumberland, he’ll be back for another visit with Clarksville’s children this weekend.

Montgomery County and the City of Clarksville will co-host Downtown for the Holidays on Saturday, December 1, immediately following Clarksville’s 48th Annual Christmas Parade. The parade kicks off at 5 p.m.

This is a family-friendly event you won’t want to miss with musical performances by the local R&B band, Eclipse. For more family fun, there will be free carriage rides downtown, and children can take home a hand-crafted toy made by the Tuckasee Woodturners and decorate a cookie with the Montgomery County Home Extension Office at Public Square.
