Friday November 24th
The festivities begin with the Santa Claus Parade on Friday November 24th at 6pm. Know of a group that would like to participate? Register to enter a float here.
Also scheduled for November 24th is perennial favourite, Markdale Moonlight Madness. Set a holiday tone with the village Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony (at the corner of Main St and Hwy 10) immediately following the conclusion of the parade. Enjoy some refreshments and stop in to visit local businesses which will stay open late so you can shop locally and cross some items off your Christmas to-do list. And don’t be surprised if you see the Grinch doing his own mingling and jingling!

Saturday November 25th
On Saturday November 25th, area crafters and vendors take centre stage upstairs at the Centre Grey Recreation Complex (Markdale Arena, 75 Walker Street beside the ball diamond and library) at the Markdale Holiday Market. Sign up for a “gnome wreath” making class run by Markdale Flowers, enjoy a free public skate and mini-show presented by Golden Blades Sk8 Academy and later on you can wrap up the day with a movie night at Annesley Church (82 Toronto St).

Holiday Decorating Challenge
Want to get in on the fun and showcase your holiday spirit? Enter the Outdoor Decorating Challenge! Register your address with the Chamber and they’ll make arrangements for their elves to visit your property (from the road) to evaluate how well you’ve decked your halls. Prizes will be awarded for both “Best Dressed” residence and business. Contact events.southgreychamber@gmail.com for a registration form and a copy of the rules.
