Boswell's Harley-Davidson and the Metro Nashville Police Department are hosting the Annual Toy Parade for the 30th year. This charity event supports the Christmas Basket Program for local families in need. Scheduled for tomorrow, it features grand marshal Bill Davidson from the Harley-Davidson founding family, as reported the City of Nashville.

The parade will take place outside First Tennessee Park, with riders revving their engines at noon. Participants are encouraged to bring a new toy or make a cash donation for the Christmas Basket Program. This program, now in its 63rd year, helps police officers deliver food and gifts to underprivileged families in Nashville during the festive season. According to a statement from the City of Nashville's official website, "Hundreds of men, women and children comprising more than 200 underprivileged families will receive surprise gifts of food and toys this year."

Bubba Boswell, President of Boswell's Harley-Davidson, expressed pride in the partnership with the Metro Nashville Police Department. He noted, "Middle Tennessee is loaded with great and caring motorcycle riders," adding, "This event shows the community our passion for an outstanding cause." The Toy Parade welcomes all riders and motorcycle brands. After the parade, there will be an after party at Scoreboard Bar and Grill on Music Valley Drive, as stated by the City of Nashville.
