On December 3rd, the Midwest Garrison made our 5th straight appearance in the 87th Annual Bloomington-Normal Christmas Parade. This year’s theme was “Rock 'N' Roll Christmas”. The parade route was approximately 2 miles long starting in Normal and finishing in downtown Bloomington. The crowd reaction was great and everyone had a fun time! A big thank you for everyone that came out for it and making our portion of the parade a success. And.....a big thank you to the morning DJ from local radio station 101.5 WBNQ for giving us a ride back to our vehicles after the parade! It was very much appreciated!
