ST. CHARLES – The four founding members of the Downtown St. Charles Partnership on Saturday will lead the Electric Christmas Parade as it makes its way east on Main Street.

Lynne Schwartz, executive director of the Downtown St. Charles Partnership, said it is a privilege to have Jack Wagner, Jim Martin, Sharon Oie and Dave Lencioni serve as the annual event’s grand marshals – a role that in recent years has been filled by a St. Charles filmmaker, community leaders and TV personalities.

She said it was easy to convince them to ride on the float put together by presenting sponsor Fox Valley Auto Group.
