santa 2ATHENS-The Reliance Bank Christmas Parade has been moved to Thursday, Dec. 12, at 6 p.m. because of the predicted 100 percent chance of rain for tomorrow night.

Athens High School’s basketball team is playing Austin at home on Tuesday, Dec. 10, the original rain date. For the safety of those traveling to the game and the parade, the rain date has been moved to Thursday, Dec. 12.

 
There are approximately 160 parade entries, and an average of 8,000 spectators attend the annual parade. This year’s theme is “A Storybook Christmas.”
 
The parade route is from Athens High School, west on Hobbs Street, around The Square and south of Jefferson Street to Hometown Grocery.
