Calendar of Events

Take a break and unwind with others in your community! Whether you’re a business owner or residential member, we all have something in common AND that is… WE LOVE OUR COMMUNITY!

Meet and network with business owners, employees and residents during our monthly meeting! Each meeting starts off with social time and food followed by club updates from the board. Every month we invite a guest speaker to share insights and expertise with our members too!

This month’s mingle will be hosted by Shibley’s at the Pier (our ABA June Member of the Month). Did you know this is Shibley’s 30th year anniversary?! The ABA will provide complimentary light appetizers and other menu items and drinks will be available for individual purchase. PLEASE RSVP!!!

Not a member? No problem! Non-members are welcome to attend meetings to find out more about the Alton Business Association.

The Alton Business Association is excited to host the 2023 Alton Old Home Day Parade on Saturday, August 12th at 11:30 am! The parade will start at Jones Field through Letter S. Rd and end in Alton Bay (approximately 1 mile). The parade line-up will begin at 10:30 am at Jones Field (more detailed instructions to follow). 

We invite you to get creative and build a float, drive a prized possessed car and stroll along with us! This is a great opportunity to join together in a family fun event! It’s also a great opportunity to engage in a business or organization team morale booster too (while also promoting your business and organization)! 

Registration and participation is FREE! Volunteers are welcome to serve on our Parade Planning Committee! 

We can’t wait to see all the creative FLOATS this year, but we will NOT be judging them or having a contest… Just good ole’ fun and encouraging others to share their community SPIRIT!

The theme of the Alton Old Home Week is coming soon, so stay tuned! 

Please complete this online parade registration no later than 8/6/2023.

All parade participants must sign a Town of Alton waiver liability form, which will be provided to you after you register or on the day of the parade.

PLEASE do not throw anything from a float or vehicles. Due to lengthy road closures and distance of the previous year’s route, we are alternating our route this year in hopes it will encourage more walker participation and not cause our main roads and business to be adversely impacted.  We appreciate your patience and support as we try this new route this year! SPECTATORS take note on the route!! 

All parade participants must clean up anything that falls off your float or formation. This includes trash debris and solid animal feces as well.

REGISTER TO BE IN THE PARADE HERE OR CLICK HERE TO BE A PARADE SPONSOR!

THANK YOU for being a part of this Town Pride and Community Building Event!
