Parade rescheduled for Dec. 15

Mountain Brook Holiday Parade has been rescheduled from Sunday, Dec. 8 to Sunday, Dec. 15 due to weather forecasts that call for rain.

Scheduled to start at 3 p.m., the parade will feature holiday floats and hundreds of elves, belles and cub scouts passing out candy and beaded necklaces. Crestline Elementary student Slade Anderson will serve as the grand marshal.

The Mountain Brook Chamber of Commerce will provide live entertainment for the thousands of residents sure to come out for the Christmas tradition.

Following the parade, Santa Claus is scheduled to arrive atop a Mountain Brook Fire Department engine and pose for pictures with joyful children and their parents.

The parade follows a route through Mountain Brook Village on Cahaba Road, Culver Road and Petticoat Lane. All roads into Mountain Brook Village will be closed at 2:45 p.m. and will not open until the parade is completed about an hour later. While the parade is in progress, no vehicles will be allowed to move through or leave Mountain Brook Village.
