We are excited to announce a special Sensory Sensitive Block at this year’s Old Timer’s Parade, designed to ensure everyone can enjoy the festivities in a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. This section of the parade route offers a quieter, less stimulating environment for individuals with sensory sensitivities and their families. Around 980 East Main St. Blue Ridge.
