Santa is coming to Dresden this Saturday, December 8.

The parade starts at 6 p.m. heading north from Dresden Area Central School, through the town following the familiar route, down Main Street and ending at the Larry Tiffin pavilion, where Santa Claus will greet kids and hand out candy bags.

“As an added attraction again this year the Dresden Downtown Night Market will be going on as well,” Dustyn Pumfrey, one of the parade organizers with the Dresden Kinsmen, told the Sydenham Current.

“So there is a lot of stuff to see in Dresden on December 8 this year.”

The theme this year is the ‘Song’s of Christmas’.

There will be prizes including best commercial float, best non-commercial float and best light display.

“Hopefully we have a great turn out,” Pumfrey said.

“It is a very ‘Christmasy’ atmosphere this year.”

If you have a float you would like to add to the parade, marshaling starts at 5 p.m. in the DACS parking lot on Wright’s Lane.
