You can't see Christmas lights at 10 o'clock in the morning. Keep it at night. Moving it to 10 am is the craziest thing I have ever heard!!!

The Christmas lights are the best part! The kids love the lights and I, as an adult, quite enjoy it myself. Who in their right mind would want to see a Christmas parade at 10 o'clock in the morning?!! KEEP IT AT NIGHT!!

It seems like the stores could stay open late for that one night...have hot chocolate or cider in your store to invite people in after the parade...don't change tradition just for one day of sales...keep the parade at night for the atmosphere!

If the parade is during the day I won't be going. Too many family things to attended to during December right before Christmas. At night we can slow down and enjoy the parade and the beautiful lights.

Please keep the parade at night. Having it during the day will not be the same. Christmas lights are better at night. Find another way to incorporate your plans to allow the parade at night.

There are great changes happening in Blount County, but changing the Christmas Parade would not be one. Let's keep the tradition going with the nighttime parade!!! I want my children to have the memories of it that I have.

Oneonta has always had the best Christmas parade Imin the area, because it is at night .... lots of lights and usually cold. This is the atmosphere for a true Christmas parade. Keep our community tradition as is!!

Go back to when it was the best; at nite, and all the parade comes down 1st Ave. also. Never change something that's not messed up.

My little boy loves watching the floats at the parade all lit up with Christmas lights that's his favorite part we wouldn't even go if it wasn't lit up like that
