ROANOKE, Va.?

An annual Roanoke event brought out the young and the young at heart.

Every year the Grandin Village Holiday Childrens Parade kicks off the holiday season.

No one really knows how old the event is, but organizers tell News7 it has been going on for more than 30-years.

Even though it has been a community staple, it's not your traditional parade.

No registration is required and kids of all ages are welcome.

"It's a children's parade, so no motorized vehicles. Try to make floats out of little red wagons and there are all kinds of kids groups- boy scouts, girl scouts, church groups- any kind of kid regardless of the size, age, whatever!" laughs Susan Stump of the Grandin Village Business Association.

The route takes parade participants less than a mile through historic Grandin Village.

The event is sponsored by the Grandin Village Business Association.
