–Organizers with the Algona Band Day Festival are looking to fill out the parade lineup this year. Algona Area Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Avery Pedersen tells KLGA News anyone interested can reserve their spot by filling out the forms available online.
Along with regular entries for the parade, Chamber Community Coordinator Amy Whitacre says they are reaching out to additional bands who may be interested in performing.
Whitacre says the marching band from Iowa Central Community College will participate this year and provide a special performance once the parade is over.
Pedersen says they are going to try and implement a “No Candy” zone between Moore and Dodge Streets to try and keep kids off the street while the bands are being judged.
The Algona Band Day parade will begin at 1 PM on Saturday, October 3rd and run along State Street in downtown Algona. Anyone with questions can contact the chamber by calling 515-295-7201.
