So, my guess would be that the tree lighting may get cancelled do to weather, but the parade will probably be a go.
BTW...pay attention and look for the Camden High Marching Band, you really can't miss them. They've played in the parade the past few years and are an absolute blast to watch. I usually make fun of marching bands (despite the Mummer's heritage...but that's different, lol), but these guys are spectacular. I think they even played in Obama's inaugural parade.
If you haven't seen what Collingswood looks like at Christmas you are missing out. With all my "town" issues that I post about, I have to give props when due. It looks like a Hollywood movie set from the 40's. Lights everywhere and a well done job. This year is no exception!

I've always loved how Haddonfield & Collingswood decorate for Christmas.
frank, glad you enjoyed it. My parents took my daughters to the parade and they had a good time, but believe it or not my parents actually said the parade wasn't quite as good as it was the past few years (less stuff), but still well done. I guess they scaled back a little somewhere.
I got to witness my sons first hockey fight, so it was worth missing the parade, lol. Nothing like watching a couple 6 year olds go at it in all their pads after trading some cross checks. Even better was watching the coaches and parents pull them apart still swinging. All is good though, we took the boys out to lunch afterward and they're now friends, lol.
