Fantastic weather by early December standards, brought out the crowds for the Fifth Annual Holiday Lights Spectacular Parade Sunday evening, December 6 in Brockport.
Organizers at the Brockport Police Stetson Club say in addition to large crowds, 2015 was a great year for entries. Decked out fire trucks, horses, Cub Scouts riding illuminated bikes, monster trucks and the Kendall Lawn Chair Ladies were among the participants. All entries in the parade had to include holiday lights.
The 2015 overall Grand Prize winner went to the Brockport DPW with a red, white and blue illuminated truck with snow maker. Santa and his helpers who rode in a restored antique sleigh won most creative. Best Non-Profit came to a tie between the Hamlin Fire Department and the Hamlin Dog Shelter, and Santa’s Choice was awarded to Cub Scout Pack 316. The Brockport Fire District received Honorable Mention along with the monster trucks from the Lake Alice mud bog.
Organizers thank emcees Caurie Putnam-Ferguson and Bob Lonsberry and those working behind the scenes, Rachael Blair, in particular.
Next year’s parade is set for Sunday, December 4, 2016.
