The Shelbyville community has a number of holiday-related events to look forward to this month and next. Some of them are more focused around getting into the holiday spirit, while others provide ways to support local businesses. The latter purpose also benefits shoppers as the gift shopping rush kicks in.
The Christmas parade on November 21 at 4 p.m. is first up. Katalyn Dragovan, director of the Greater Shelbyville Chamber of Commerce, says the parade route runs from the high school to Forest Park.
Anyone interested in being in the parade can register by calling (217) 774-2221 or emailing kdragovan.chamber@gmail.com.
Next up is a pair of events on December 5. They are known as the Holly Jolly Date Night and A Night With Santa.
Directly after that, the Roxy Theater brings out the holiday favorites in film. They have showings on December 6, 13, and 20, all free of charge.
Also during the holiday season, albeit not directly related, the Chamber is looking to bring in new members and keep its current ones on. They have a special promotion for new members and look to make the enrollment process as easy as possible.

Katalyn Dragovan appeared as a guest on the WTIM Shelbyville Morning Show.
