HATBORO ANNOUNCES HOLIDAY PARADE FUNDRAISER
HATBORO, PA—The Greater Hatboro Chamber of Commerce has announced a new Discount Card Fundraising Program to help fund the production costs of this year’s 52nd Annual Hatboro Holiday Parade.
“The discount card will be for sale for $10 at the Greater Hatboro Chamber of Commerce office, from any chamber board member, Hatboro Federal Savings, or KP Kitchen Crafts,” says Joseph J. Tryon, chamber president. “We want to shine a spotlight on the borough’s terrific shops and restaurants by offering valuable coupon savings with unlimited use. The card will be valid from September 1, 2012 through October 1, 2013.”
The following participating businesses featured on the card include: Horsham Dairy Queen, Quig’s Pizzeria & Grille, Manja, Village Italian Bistro, Heilman Sunoco, Xtreme Plumbing, Hatboro Jewelers, Reese’s Pizza, Patriot Nail Salon, KP Kitchen Crafts, Extreme Midyears, Closet Addiction, Bejeweled by JMD Gifts, and Impact Thrift Stores.
This year’s Hatboro Holiday Parade theme is Hawaiian Holiday, and features more than 100 units with 4,000–5,000 participants, including high school marching bands, string bands, youth and dance groups, fire and rescue units, community organizations and public officials. Santa Claus arrives at the end of the parade in a horse-drawn carriage provided by A Better Way Farm, in Newtown. Children are encouraged to bring their letters for Santa which will be collected by Santa’s Helpers from UPS. The parade is completely funded by donations and sponsorships.
The Greater Hatboro Chamber of Commerce located at 120 S. York Road, Suite 6, hosts special and annual events to support area businesses, both large and small, including the Halloween Stroll, Holiday Parade and Moonlight Memories Car Show. The car show is now in its 20th year, and drew more than 50,000 visitors to Hatboro this July.
