The holidays are fast approaching, and with the first Friday in December comes the annual Santa Claus parade and city light up in Gyro Park. More than a dozen local organizations decorated floats and marched in the parade on Friday night, which ended in Gyro Park when the Christmas ligths and decorations are switched on! Completel with warming stations and hot chocolate and kettle corn ourtesy of the Grand Forks Rotary Club, it was a fun night for all. Photos by Kathleen Saylors.
