The Essex Business Improvement Association hosts the Essex Santa Claus Parade starting at 6:30pm.
The route starts at Talbot St. S and Fairview Ave. and travels north along Talbot to Maidstone Ave.
Elves from Canada Post will collect letters addressed to Santa Claus along the route, and canned food donations will be accepted too.
SPS Board Chair Kelly Ash said the decision followed discussions with Acting Chief Mike Federico and aligns with practices at other police services.
The annual Canada Day parade will begin at 11 a.m. on Saturday, June 27, from Wildwood Park to Kenwick Park.
The $7.6 million project, which also involved water and sewer infrastructure improvements, began in 2024.
The Toronto Blue Jays dropped their third in a row Thursday, 6-5 to the visiting Texas Rangers, and the Detroit Tigers suffered a 2-1 loss to Houston.
The week-long celebration starts on Saturday and continues to next Friday.
Environment Canada said Thursday night that severe thunderstorms were moving further east after rain and high winds affected portions of the region.
