OXFORD, Miss. (AP) - A Mississippi city has announced that its annual Christmas parade has been canceled.
Oxford city officials made the announcement on Thursday.
A declining number of participants was behind the decision, The Oxford Eagle reported.
The coronavirus pandemic had already prompted changes in the format. It was to have been held Dec. 7 in a parking lot, where it would be more of a drive-through event in which cars would drive past the floats.
