ATTENTION MORAINE RESIDENTS:Tonight, a large caravan of 90+ marked police cars with their lights on will be traveling throughout the county escorting Santa Claus to the many hospitals to bring Christmas cheer to those who need it most. We anticipate the caravan entering Moraine between 7:15 – 7:30 p.m. traveling south on Main Street from Dayton to Dryden Road, and in to West Carrollton. We encourage residents to watch the caravan while maintaining social distancing guidelines. Vehicles are not permitted to park in the roadway on Main Street or Dryden Road. We ask that you utilize the parking lots of the Payne Rec Center and the Moraine City Building, as well as the overflow lot behind the City Building on Dryden Road. Pedestrians are permitted and encouraged to be on the bike path along Main Street in Moraine. Please expect massive traffic delays in the area.
