On Saturday, November 1, there will be a workshop at the Visitor Center, 201 North Hudson Street from 10 am until noon to work with ideas on how to make a float for the 24th Annual Lighted Christmas Parade that will really sparkle. The theme of this year's parade, planned for Saturday, November 29 is "Silver City for the Holidays".

The parade will start on Broadway at Cooper Street, proceed to Bullard Street, turn north and end at College and Pope Street, where the parade participant awards will be announced. Get in on the fun, enter the parade, build a float and celebrate the beginning of the holiday season. For an application and more information, visit silversicymainstreet.com or call 575-534-1700.
