We’ve officially started the countdown to the Annual Springfield Christmas Parade with less than 24 hours to go, and we would LOVE to invite you, the clients you support, and your families to join us by walking in the parade this year!

Our float number is #33, and we will be staged somewhere along Olympic Street. Last year, we were near KFC and Walmart, so keep an eye out in that general area. You’ll easily spot us by looking for the big B & R Wrecking truck — that’s our float!

Please note: seating on the float is completely full, so anyone joining us will need to be able to walk the full 3 miles. The parade ends along Pioneer Parkway by SUB. Be sure to arrange your own transportation both before and after the parade, as we are unable to provide rides.

Meet-up time: Between 12:00 p.m. and 12:30 p.m.
When: Saturday, December 6, 2025
Theme: Enchanted Snowman Forest
Dress-up option: Come dressed as a snowman for extra fun! (Totally optional — festive spirit is all that matters!)

Don’t forget to dress warm and bring something waterproof in case of rain. Please feel free to bring strollers, wagons and/or wheelchairs if they are needed.

We hope to see as many of you as possible — let’s make this the biggest parade turnout we’ve ever had!

Banner Bank

A huge thank you to Banner Bank for its generous $3,500 donation to The Arc Lane County’s CARES Center food pantry!

This support comes at a critical time. While food donations from the Oregon Food Bank are decreasing, food insecurity in our community is rising — and this gift will help us continue providing essential nourishment to children, adults, and families who depend on us.

We are so grateful for partners like Banner Bank who step up when the community needs it most.

Thank you for making a difference!

1 in 4 Americans have a disability. The language used about us MATTERS. It matters to us and to our families, caregivers, siblings, friends, and neighbors. The R-word isn’t a punchline—it’s harmful.

When we choose respect over the R-word, we create a world where everyone is seen, heard, and valued.

Respect is no joke, and it’s time we started treating it that way.
