DATE HAS CHANGED DUE TO EXTREME WEATHER CONDITIONS

Bring the kids to our annual Twinkle Parade! Meet outside the Dock Cafe for cookies, coffee, and cocoa then off we go, parading and caroling along the river for the tree lighting ceremony at the Gazebo, a visit from Santa and kid-friendly fireworks.

Twinkle lights will be passed out while supplies last, but feel free to use your imagination and wear your own lights to add to the fun!

Complimentary cookie, cocoa and coffee will be enjoyed. Bring
