Marple Township Holiday Parade Set For Saturday

MARPLE TOWNSHIP, PA — Marple Township is getting into the holiday spirit as it is planning to host its Holiday Parade this Saturday.

The parade will begin at 4:30 p.m. Saturday, leaving from the Broomall Fire Company station, and will traverse Marple Township then end at the annual Marple Township tree lighting at Veterans Park.

Events at the park will begin at 5 p.m. and will feature a visit from Sana Claus, who will collect toy lists and take photos with kids.

As the parade makes its way around town, the fire company will be collecting donations for two local organizations: the Domestic Abuse Project of Delaware County and the Marple Civic Association, who are conducting their annual toy drive for local families in need.

The organizations will partner again for a drive-through Santa event at the Broomall Fire Company.

Santa will be coming to the firehouse from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday Dec. 11 with candy canes in hand for all who visit. We will also be collecting donations for DAP and the toy drive.
