The 2025 Kemptville Rotary Santa Claus Parade Returns November 15 The lights, the music, the magic - it’s almost parade time again! The Rotary Club of Kemptville, in partnership with the Municipality of North Grenville, is thrilled to invite everyone to the 2025 Kemptville Santa Claus Parade on Saturday, November 15 at 4:30 p.m. to experience the sights, sounds, and smiles of the season. Inspired by Rotary In-
ternational’s 2025 - 2026 theme “Unite for Good,” this year’s parade celebrates unity, light, and community spirit. Organizers invite everyone to light up their floats and help illuminate Kemptville with joy and creativity. A Tradition That Brings Us Together The Kemptville Rotary Santa Claus Parade has been lighting up the community for decades. Last year’s event drew thousands of spectators and
1
featured more than sixty dazzling floats, from creative community groups to festive businesses and, of course, Santa himself! The parade also carries on a proud tradition of giving back. Local groups will be collecting donations along the route to help families in need this holiday season: • The Rotary Club of Kemptville float will be collecting non-perishable food items along the parade route - every can counts! ??
• The Royal Lepage Realty float will be collecting new, unwrapped toys along the route, or you can drop off donations at the Royal Lepage office. • The North Grenville Fire Service will be passing the boot to collect cash donations in support of the Kemptville Salvation Army Food Bank. Together, these efforts ensure that the warmth of the season reaches everyone in our community.
