Thanksgiving Day Parades Phoenix AZ 2016

The word Thanksgiving, for most of us, is synonymous with Turkey. After you have a few moments to think about it, however, you will begin to remember all the other things Thanksgiving is associated with. One of these things is a parade. In the greater Phoenix Metro area, there aren’t many official Thanksgiving Day Parades, but there are other holiday events and parades that feature Thanksgiving themes. If all else fails, you can always come to Mercedes-Benz of Arrowhead to test drive a new or used Mercedes-Benz vehicle.
