Santa to visit the Lincoln Depot after next week's parade in downtown Lincoln
Parade route to change slightly to end at Chicago Street

[December 05, 2018]   LINCOLN - Next week, on Thursday, December 6th the Logan County Tourism Bureau will host the annual Lincoln Christmas Parade starting at 6:30 p.m.

Once again this year, children can expect to be able to spend time with Santa and Mrs. Claus after the parade.

The parade route this year is slightly different. As always, the parade will begin on Wyatt Avenue, travel north on Kickapoo Street to Pulaski Street where it will turn right or east and travel to McLean Street. At McLean the parade will turn left or north and travel to Broadway Street. At the Post Office corner, the parade will turn left as always, but this year it will continue west on Broadway Street TWO BLOCKS to Chicago Street and the Lincoln Depot.

The parade will disband on Chicago Street, and Santa's sleigh will pull into the circle drive at the Depot. Santa will be welcomed inside the Depot where he will be set up beside the Christmas tree to visit with children.

There will also be cookies and hot chocolate served in the north room at the depot for all to enjoy while they wait their turn on Santa's lap. So, please mark your calendars and plan accordingly so that you will all have the opportunity to visit with Santa.
