stroll on state

Help is needed for returning holiday tradition in Illinois.

Rockford's popular Dasher Dash 5K is coming back this year with new experiences to enjoy, and registration is already open.

If you've ever wanted a job as an elf during Christmastime, you should consider volunteering for this year's Stroll on State.

Santa visits look VERY different this year. Whether Santa is chilling behind some plexiglass, or up on his porch behind a railing, kids definitely aren't jumping up onto Santa's lap this year. But, like everybody else this year, Santa is making it work...

Did you know that it's scientifically proven that decorating for the holidays early can boost your mood? Well, Rockford is totally down with that. The city just put their tree up! Well ... kind of. The official 2020 Stroll on State Christmas tree has officially settled down in Downtown Rockford for the Holidays...

If you've been spending more time locked-in at home than you'd care to, here's a great chance to not only get out of the house, but also lending a helping hand with a great community event.

Stroll On State is hoping to bring a little more joy to the 815 this holiday season with a decorating contest for Winnebago County businesses.

This is the year of the pandemic, the year of quarantine, the year of e-learning... and the year we still got to celebrate Stroll on State despite all of the other stuff.

OnlyInYourState.com says these are the towns across Illinois that have decorations, activities and a certain je ne sais quoi to really get you in the holiday mood.

Stop by Noah's Ark Animal Sanctuary to take a pic with Santa and an adoptable pet during Stroll On State this Saturday.
