Ralphie gets his Red Ryder B.B. gun, an angel gets its wings, Clark gets a membership to the Jelly of the Month Club, and we all get inspired and entertained by classic Christmas movies like these!

To celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Christmas by the Lake, the lighted parade will have a special theme: Best Christmas Movie.  Families, businesses, and organizations are invited to incorporate their favorite Christmas movie into their lighted float for a chance to win $875 in prizes!  There is no entry fee for floats.

The parade will begin at 8th Street and travel down Main Avenue, continuing down Lakeview Drive to 4th Avenue North, ending at North Shore Drive.  Following the lighted parade, our friends at Flashing Thunder will present a stunning fireworks display over the lake.

The parade and fireworks are just two of the many, many happenings during Christmas by the Lake weekend.  Click here for the event poster.
