Parade of Lights Today

By Alexis Pencar

SHARON SPRINGS — This Friday evening, December 6th, don't miss the Sharon Springs Parade of Lights starting at the Sharon Springs Central School. Come out early for plenty to do starting at 6:15 PM with the American Legion Wreath Ceremony and then highly anticipated Tree Lighting at 6:25 PM. Santa will climb into his sleigh and the Parade of Lights, hosted by the Sharon Springs PTO, will kick off promptly at 6:30 PM.

With lots of parade entries, this will be one to remember! There will be floats, music, and of course tons of lights!

The Parade will begin in the parking lot of Sharon Springs Central School, make a right onto Highway Route 20, left on Main Street, left on Park Street, right onto Beechwood Road, and end at the Sharon Springs Fire Department. There will be a free hot cocoa bar and snacks inside with a photo opportunity with Santa & Mrs Claus! Warm up and enjoy the holiday season with the community on this festive night to remember!
