Parades
With more than 10 parades marching down C Street each year, you could say this small town knows how to have a good time. C Street is lined with historic buildings, wooden board sidewalks, boutique shops and that old-fashioned small-town cheer. What better place for a parade.
To participate in any Virginia City parade, complete the form and submit it as instructed within two days prior to the parade. All parades start at the Fourth Ward School, unless noted.
