Kari Shipley, one of the parade organizers, said after this past Saturday every weekend, they have something special planned.

"We have the scavenger hunt, inflatable race, and chili cook-off next weekend, the Kiss Tribute Band on the 22nd, and the costume parade and contest with prizes for October 29," she said.

"I grew up being a part of everything in Granite City," she added. "My dad was a big part of that when I was a kid. We are hoping this brings out more family-friendly opportunities. We had a Mardi Gras event last February and we hope to do that again. We have the Candy Cane Parade in December and then the Mardi Gras event in February."
