The Greenfield Community Association (GCA) was recently notified that a permit for a “Greenfield Christmas Parade” on December 4, 2026, has been filed by the Greenfield Community Club (GCC) and the Greenfield Baseball Association (GBA). This filing occurred without prior discussion or collaboration with the GCA board.

The GCA has organized Greenfield's holiday parade for more than a decade, continuing a tradition that began in 1993 under the late Mayor Bob O'Connor to support our local business district.

Our goal is never to compete with fellow community groups, but to support a shared spirit of cooperation across our neighborhood. Given GCC and GBA’s decision to independently file the permit and take the lead on this year’s parade, the GCA will step back and allow these organizations to move forward with their plans. 

The GCA is proud to represent the diverse community of Greenfield. We are concerned that this event, historically a holiday parade designed to include people of all faiths and backgrounds, has been specifically registered as a Christmas parade. We ask the GCC and GBA to restore the traditional name — the Greenfield Holiday Parade — and ensure that this event remains a true celebration of all of our neighbors.

We hope the parade will continue to bring joy to the community, strengthening the connections that make our neighborhood so special and setting a welcoming tone for the holiday season.
