Businesses, organizations, and individuals are invited to take part in the sweetest parade in town! The Le Mars Area Chamber of Commerce is taking applications for the 2026 Ice Cream Days Parade which starts at 9:30am on Saturday, June 20th. Speaking on this week’s “What Now” show, Maggie Rechtenbaugh of the Le Mars Chamber told KLEM the deadline for entries is Friday, June 5th.
The parade entry fee is $25 for Chamber members and $35 for non-chamber members, and the route runs from 8th St S, through downtown Le Mars, and ends at 2nd St NW. Rechtenbaugh said volunteers are needed for the parade and the Ice Cream Days Festival.
As is tradition, KLEM will broadcast the 2026 Ice Cream Days Parade, both on the radio on 1410 AM and 96.9 FM, and with a livestream on our YouTube page.
