If you don’t want to walk the whole route, just wait by the side of the road and join in when the parade comes by. The parade will follow down Exchange Street on the and turn left onto Main Street where you are free to turn around and head back to the Village Green for the Egg Hunt followed by Games, Snacks, Bake Sale, Face Painting, Crafts and lots of prizes and goodies.
