Join us on December 5th for the 8th Annual Lighted Holiday Parade! A magical evening where community members deck out their vehicles in festive lights and decorations, transforming Downtown Warrensburg into a shimmering winter wonderland. As the procession winds through town, families are invited to drop their letters to Santa in a special mailbox on the courthouse lawn, Santa himself arrives afterward to collect them! Take a festive photo with Santa and gather with loved ones for the enchanting lighting of the Courthouse Christmas tree, a moment sure to fill the evening with warmth and cheer.
