Kellogg’s truck and then they also

Another new attraction is a photo
scavenger hunt for cereal company
mascots in which people can snap
a picture of a mascot and upload it
to to Facebook or Instagram using
the hashtag #CerealSearch2024 for a
chance to be entered into “a cereal-
ously sweet giveaway at Cereal
Festival!” said Walden.
Vendors at the event include
Mother Moon, Eyemart Express,
Sugar Shop, Cereal City Candles,
Everdry Waterproofing of Michigan
and the Girl Scouts Heart of
Michigan.
Before all of this happens, though,
the Grand Cereal Parade will kick
off the festivities Friday, June 7 from
6:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. in downtown
Battle Creek on VanBuren from the
Kool Family Community Center to
McCamly Street and then turning
right onto McCamly.
The parade will turn right again
onto Michigan Avenue and return to
the Kool Family Community Center.
There is no grand marshal this
year, said Walden, so that the cereal
company mascots can lead the way.
“The mascots are going to be at
269-223-3588 the front of the parade this year,”
