Cruising Into Christmas 2- Holiday Lights Contest & Backward Parade

Holiday Fun For Everyone!

Cruising Into Christmas is back again for it's second year with a fun for all ages evening to celebrate the holidays! It's a safe and super fun way to get into the spirit of the season by loading your loved ones into the car, and taking a cruise around town. One of the most precious gifts you can give is making cherished memories with your loved ones and we hope to help you make those memories on this magical evening.

Be sure to check out all of the Holiday Lights Contest Entries, and view the Holiday Parade Float entries parked at each of the Giving and Receiving Stations throughout town for our Backward Parade. Like last year's event, the Giving and Receiving Stations will be set up so that you can make donations and receive holiday goodies. Wrap up your evening with a cruise down the nostalgic and beautifully decorated Silver Street in Historic Downtown!

Make sure you also vote on your favorite decorated house and favorite float! Local eateries will have dinner and treat specials, plus you can finish your holiday shopping in our various shops that feature one-of-a-kind gifts from antiques and home decor, to jewelry, specialty foods and drinks, fine art, clothing and more!
