Town pre-Christmas calendar

• Seventeen mothers, PTO leaders and educators have worked side-by-side in a committee to plan the Town’s 2nd Annual Christmas Parade.

The event — complete with Santa and Mrs. Claus, Admiral Dave, Finley the Dolphin, Buddy the Elf and ex-UT Vols Football greats Bobby Scott and Jeff Hall as grand marshals — is slated to begin at 4 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 10, with Santa’s Village open from 2 to 4 p.m. on the Farragut Middle School campus.

The new route this year starts at FMS, travels down West End Avenue, proceeds toward Kingston Pike but circles at the second island on the avenue, then travels back up West End to the high school, going the “wrong way” — or clockwise — in FHS’s circle drive car lane before ending in the school’s junior lot.

• Mario-Kart Tournament is from 6 to 8 p.m., Thursday, Dec. 7, in Farragut Community Center. Test your skills in tournament play on Nintendo Switches. Everyone will get the chance to play multiple rounds. Is open to ages 6-12 for $10 per participant. Registration required. Last day to register is Wednesday, Dec. 6.
