I have just been allocated the task of once again organising the annual Christmas Parade, so sorry about the late notice!
I understand that there was a survey of the business community to ascertain their support for its continuance and seems there was a resounding yes but have no idea why nothing had proceeded - however it's under way now.
I believe several of you may have contacted Roz Chapman as a result of either her calling you or you phoning her following the notice in Wednesday's Gazette and she has passed those names and contacts on to me. However, I would appreciate your confirmation.
If you would like to participate, please either confirm by return email or phone me 0419 337 608.
Face painters/entertainers/other street entertainers please contact me as well.
Plan is as usual to depart from Circle Street at noon on December 12, proceed down High St, around Arthur Square by way of Stephen St/Pioneer Ave/Bathurst St and return back along High St to finish at Circle. The parade will go ahead, rain hail or shine!

Given the above comment,"I understand that there was a survey of the business community to ascertain their support for its continuance." I would like clarification of what 'the
ReplyDeletebusiness community' is. Is it the businesses in High St or the businesses as listed in the Derwent Valley Business & Services Directory?'
Sorry I can't exactly answer that query Anonymous, but I believe the survey was done of those businesses who pay the Business Levy and provide the funds for the Christmas Parade.
