Now in its 43rd year, the annual Lyons Holiday Parade of Lights is a sparkling tradition. And with the theme of Winter Wonderland, this year sparkled and shone! With marvelous floats, light-bedecked vehicles, local sports stars, and Santa sleighing down the street, it was a spectacle to behold. The mild temperatures, along with free cookies and cocoa provided by The River Church, made for a merry time following the parade as the Lyons High School and Elementary School Show Choirs performed in Sandstone Park before the start of a booming fireworks display.
