Good Morning, COTR followers!
We are so excited about the COTR Day Parade. The floats are ready, garland is hung, drivers are ready, heads are pack, the bleachers have arrived and the the warehouse is ready to move floats.
So many people have worked hard to get to this point. We have our fingers crossed and are hopeful to have a break in the weather Saturday and at this time we are not canceling the parade. Please follow the COTR FB page, cotr_warehouse on instagram or listen Dixie Country 98.5 to for all updates. Richard Scott WVUA 23 our, Grand Marshal, is also keeping an eye on things as he always does. Have a great day!

December 1, 2023

Lots going on in Demopolis leading up to the Nautical Parade! -
Lighting of the Love Light Tree, Special Child, Lighting of Public Square, Naming of St. Nick, Tour of Homes - Gaineswood, Bluff Hall + more, Alabama State Championship BBQ Cook-off, COTR Fair in the Square, Jingle Bell Run, and the Day Parade!! WOW!!

Check out our full schedule of events for details!

Congratulations to all!!
Come see the naming of St. Nick and the Lighting of Public Square, Thursday, Nov 30, at 5:30pm.

These nominees were nominated by individuals that took a moment to submit a letter explaining what makes their nominee a St. Nick in our community. Names are redacted from the submitted letters, and a committee located 50+ miles outside of Demopolis (with no direct ties) reads the letters and chooses the one that most embodies the spirit of St. Nick. All are certainly worthy! And we greatly appreciate those that took the time to write a nomination letter.
