The town’s holiday season was officially inaugurated with the third annual tree lighting and visit with Santa in Harold Radcliffe park on December 7. If a picture is indeed worth a thousand words, the following provides a pretty thorough review of the proceedings.

Boat Parade Rescheduled
The weather was perfect for the tree lighting. Not so for the boat parade. For the first time in its history, high winds forced the committee and captains to postpone the event from Sunday, December 16, to Saturday, December 22. Everything else stays the same, e.g. starting time, route and award of prizes. There are 27 boats entered. And this time, the weather is expected to cooperate. Fortunately, the weather was still nice when Santa, the mayor and others made their pilgrimage through the town spreading good cheer and favors for all. Once again, Santa rode a fire engine and had a police escort.
Winners Named in House Decorations Contest
As usual, judging the house decorations was a challenge. There were so many contenders. In the end, the prizes went to:
| Most Outstanding Decorations | David and Rebecca Moultrie 338 173rd Avenue |

Congratulations to all the winners and a big thank you to all who participated.
