Letter: Question about the Christmas Parade delay Trying to find a place to store a large float for 2 weeks is a daunting task! Can it not be moved just a week ahead? As a long time citizen of Adair County the Christmas Parade has always been the kick off to the Christmas Season for me and my family. A tradition that we have attended for 28 years. I have been both in the parade and watched as a bystander. For the past several years we have entered a float and have always had a great time working on them. Anyone that has ever built a float understands the time, effort, and money that goes into building one. But we love being able to see everything come together and make our plans into reality.
