Location: The Jack Frost Parade starts at the Conrad Weiser Middle School. The Route will be West on Penn Street (Rt 422), ending at Sonoco on 30 W Meadow Avenue.
The Jack Frost Parade is one way we give back to our community. Each year, we award scholarships to two Conrad Weiser seniors. We also collect non-perishable food for the Conrad Weiser Food Pantry, and we appreciate donations to help support next year’s parade.
Each year, we look forward to the thousands of people gathered along the side streets of Robesonia, watching bands, floats, dancers, groups of children, string bands, and many giant balloons! The parade continues to be a huge success in our community, with some saying it was one of the best parades they have ever seen!
We Need Jack Frost Sponsors!
It takes a lot of money to put on a parade. The last parade cost more than $30,000.00. So we are looking to area businesses to help make this day even more of a celebration.
We depend on the generous donations of our business partners to help us make this parade a success. We hope that you will want to be a part of this fun community endeavor that has a great impact on community pride and support.

Parade Route
Directions
The parade is in downtown Robesonia, check out the FAQ below for information about parking.
F.A.Q.
Parking is available behind the borough hall, as well as street parking on any of the side streets that aren’t the parade route. Participants may park at the high school or middle school.
The parade route is about 1.5 miles. and lasts about 2-2.5 hours. We exit the west entrance of Conrad Weiser Middle School, heading west on Route 422. We turn left on South Church Street and then end the route by turning left onto W Meadow Ave. Please note that this is a new route for this year!
For participants: There is an exit route from Meadow Street to Freeman Street, which allows you to easily return to the high school once the parade passes. This increases the route to a little over 2 miles.
We accept food collections for the Conrad Weiser Food Pantry and financial support for next year’s parade only. We kindly request that there be no soliciting of funds taken along the parade route except for the food pantry and the parade.
Groups may pass out informational flyers but are not permitted to collect anything from the people watching the parade.
The goal is to have the parade, but if the weather is too severe, unfortunately, the parade will be canceled. In the event this happens, we will post information as early as possible on the Trinity Lutheran Facebook page.
There are a multitude of ways to provide support. You can volunteer, be a sponsor or you can donate. We also depend on business sponsors to make this day a fun celebration for the community.
Deadline to register: Friday, October 11, 2023. No registrations will be accepted after this time.
