Kannapolis’ Christmas Parade Returns Saturday

An odd thing happened just now.  I was sitting here trying to come up with the words to talk about the Kannapolis Christmas Parade returning this Saturday.  I written about countless parades and attending/participated in more than you can imagine.  I had nothing.  And then a wave came over me.  I was thinking about this past year.  It has been one of profound personal loss.  I've tried to compartmentalize a lot I'm afraid.  And that's not a healthy thing.  More than I have in a while, I think I need some Christmas spirit and magic.  If you feel as if you're in the same boat, The Kannapolis Christmas Parade may be just the ticket. There's something special about seeing a town come together in spirit and celebration during the holidays.  There really is.  See for yourself as this Saturday at 6 p.m., the Kannapolis Christmas Parade travels down Laureate Way and West Avenue with more than 130 entries, 9 bands, Christmas lights, decorations and more Christmas spirit than your soul can handle. And when I say Christmas lights, I'm talking about THOUSANDS of colorful lights adorning parade entries making the Kannapolis Christmas Parade a must not miss holiday evening event this Saturday beginning at 6pm.  Oh, and did I mention a certain famous yuletide toymaker will be a part of the grand finale?  Bring the whole family to Kannapolis this Saturday evening.  Find your Christmas spirit and soothe your soul.  You know you can sure use it. https://youtu.be/jL340yM_zBU [select-listicle listicle_id="475789" syndication_name="holiday-season-gripes-and-pet-peeves" description="yes"]
