Christmas In Frederick


Christmas in Frederick is always a fun time! The Frederick Chamber of Commerce organizes a themed Christmas Parade for downtown, featuring floats, cars, and walking exhibits.

This year's Christmas Theme is "Christmas Through the Eyes of a Child".
The parade will be held December 14th at 5:30 pm in downtown Frederick.

$225 will be given away to the top-three Float entries.

In addition the top-two winners in the Walking Unit division and Auto Unit divisions will be awarded prizes.

The Frederick Chamber Bucks drawing will be immediately following the Christmas Parade at the KYBE Studio. $2000 in Chamber Bucks was given away in 2016! Businesses sponsoring the Chamber Bucks Give Away will be listed soon and shoppers can start collecting tickets Monday, November 20. In addition, the Parade Magic vendor show will be located at 120 N. Main (next door to KC's) before, during and after the parade.

Don't forget to check out the Ag Boosters Chili Dinner the night of the parade in the Lois Long Center from 4-7 pm.

Frederick residents can also get in on the fun by entering the Best Decorated Home contest and the Best Decorated Tree Downtown contest. Businesses and individuals are encouraged to decorate a tree any way they chose and display it in the downtown area. This is very similar to the decorated bicycles for OK FreeWheel or the decorated chairs for Arts 'N Action. Both contest winners will be awarded $50 in Chamber Bucks! Winners will be announced during the Chamber Bucks Give Away.

Also, the Frederick Arts and Humanities Council will hold its annual event, Breakfast with Santa, on the first Saturday in December from 9-11:30 am, tickets are $10. "How The Grinch Stole Christmas" (Jim Carrey version) will be shown at 1 pm in the Ramona Theatre for $1, concessions will be available. Tillman County Trade Day & Downtown Market will host Christmas in the Fair Barn vendor and food show along with a Christmas concert by Barry & Michelle Patterson on December 9. The First Baptist Church holds an annual free Christmas dinner and Bible Baptist Church has an Annual Christmas Drive-Thru Program December 15-16.
