The Bluffton Blaze of Lights parade, planned for Saturday, Nov. 28, is inviting area groups to join the parade.

This year’s Blaze, sponsored by the Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce takes place on Saturday, Nov. 28, in downtown Bluffton.

This year’s Blaze theme is “A Christmas from the Past.”

Earlier this month over 40 units were already registered for the parade, according to Junior Weihrauch, parade director.

Last year, for the first time ever, the parade topped 100 units. The Blaze planners hope to continue that parade size this year, making it one of the largest small-town parades in northwestern Ohio. Last year’s parade lasted one hour.

The year’s parade will line up on Snider Road beginning at 4 p.m. The parade starts at 5 p.m.

Groups interested in being in the parade may contact Junior Weihrauch at 419-365-5304 or email [email protected]
