(KNZA)--The 24th Annual Jingle Bell Ride will hit the streets of Hiawatha on Sunday, November 15.
Organizers say the goal of the ride is to help the less fortunate children in Brown County experience the joy of Christmas.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and rising cases in Brown County, organizers say there will not be activities around the Brown County Courthouse Square this year, but there will be parade.
Rider registration for this year's event will begin at 11:00 Sunday morning on the south side of the Courthouse Square.
At 2:00, the riders will take part in a parade on Oregon Street before splitting up to collect donated gifts.
Needed are new unwrapped toys for those of all ages, monetary gifts and children's hats and gloves.
If you would like to donate a toy or a monetary gift your asked to call 785-741-0861 or you can email monetary donations to Jingle Bell Ride, P.O Box 434, Hiawatha, 66434.
Last year, the Jingle Bell Ride helped more than 90 families and provided toys for more than 200 children in Brown County.
