A special thanks goes out to the men and women of the Blount County Fire Protection District for serving as our Grand Marshals and protecting us every day, to the Blount County Sheriff’s Office for doing their part to ensure the roadways are cleared and safe for the parade each year, to Rockford Lodge 469 for their assistance each year in lining up the parade, and to the Heritage High School Marching Band for providing the energy and excitement that makes the parade what it is.

Finally, the City of Rockford would like to thank each and every person who was involved in the parade. We hope to have everyone back next year to be a part of our Christmas celebration.
