The Apex Rotary Club Christmas Parade is returning to light up the streets of Apex on Saturday, December 7, 2024, starting at 5:00 pm. This festive event, a beloved tradition in the community, will kick off at the intersection of Ambergate Station and The Peakway, proceed down the historic Salem Street, and culminate at the Apex Public Works Buildings on Upchurch Street.

The parade promises an evening filled with holiday spirit, featuring a dazzling array of floats, local marching bands, and performances that capture the essence of the season. Community groups, local businesses, and nonprofits are all invited to participate, with nonprofits able to register for $125.

For those interested in attending or participating, all ticket and registration details can be found on the Apex Rotary Club's website at Apex Rotary Club Christmas Parade.

Don’t miss this opportunity to celebrate the holiday season with the Apex community in a spectacular display of lights, music, and cheer. Mark your calendars and join us in making this year’s parade the most memorable one yet!

Flourishing with Local Small Business Expert, Cherith Roberson

After working with thousands of business owners and hearing the same questions over and over, local small business owner Cherith Roberson wrote a step-by-step guidebook that takes the guesswork out of building a business. Cherith is a local Apex resident, mom of two kiddos, and loves entrepreneurship. She ran the Wake Tech Small Business Center for five years and after a lot of research and 1x1 business counseling, she decided to create a templated guide for busy business owners who don't want to spend hours searching online to figure out what to do next and her business, Flourish In Growth was born. The Guided Small Business Planner covers 11 chapters that walk an owner through exactly how to start or build upon their business. It's especially helpful if you are building a business that isn't growing at the speed that you want to see and if you feel like you are constantly second-guessing yourself. You can learn more about this tool at her website: www.FlourishInGrowth.com and buy it for $59 which includes a physical planner, access to the digital course that supports the planner, and membership to a private Facebook group with a free monthly training.
