If you made it out last year, then you KNOW how much of a BLAST this was!
Mark your calendars now for the best little lights parade in Jersey county, and become a part of a new local tradition!

Line-up at the Hawg Pit at 4:30pm. Parade starts at 5:30pm and will travel Water St. and come to an end at The Loading Dock for a evening of ice-skating and fun times!
If you would like to be involved in any way, please contact us today to join the line-up! More information TBA!
