The New Rochelle Chamber of Commerce invites you to the 51st Annual Valenti Thanksgiving Day Parade! This year, the parade is scheduled for Saturday, November 22nd from 10 am – 12 pm. We invite you to participate in this traditional event and hope you can join us in some way.
The parade starts on North Ave. in front of New Rochelle High School (where they will be holding a Pancake Breakfast from 8 AM – 9:30 AM) and ultimately ends on Main St. and Maple Ave. More specifically, the parade route heads south down North Ave., turns right onto Main St., and passes Memorial Highway where the bandstand will be.
If you are planning to participate, please fill out the application below and mail it or fax it back to the Chamber office by November 1st . Your immediate response will be helpful in planning the parade. Please also forward this letter to organizations that you think may be interested in participating, as we may not have their contact information.
Please note that float sponsorship or vehicle participation is also available. Rates are as follows:
• Marching with your own banner – Free
• Having your vehicle in the parade – $500
• Borrowing a Float – $750 + $250 deposit returned after the parade
We look forward to good weather, a cheerful day, and lots of fun. We hope you’ll join us!

The prices for the floats have not changed since before 2011. In the past, the Chamber of Commerce have given reduced rates and complimentary floats to not for profit organizations. If you are a not for profit organization, please contact us at 632 – 5700 as we work with the community of New Rochelle. Go New Ro!
