The Cortana Kiwanis Christmas Parade is the largest community event in Baton Rouge in December.
With crowds swelling to more than 70,000 in 2010, (and thousands more tuning in for the televised version), the annual Christmas Parade presents meaningful marketing value to all types of business.
As a parade sponsor you benefit from media exposure in print, on the radio, on television, on the Internet and through Social Media.
On parade-day your business is literally paraded in front of tens of thousands of people and you'll have a great time doing it.
And if all that isn't enough, your financial support is tax deductible.
All funds raised support Cortana Kiwanis Club, (a local 501C Non Profit Organization), and that will guarantee your name on Santa's 'Good List'.
