This holiday season the Matt & Shanda Carstens Family Foundation is all about championing rural communities, supporting small businesses, and preserving the magic of small-town celebrations. What better way to spread joy than by kicking off the holiday season with Perry's Lighted Parade. Are you in?! Join us the day after Thanksgiving for Perry's Lighted Parade!
Parade Route:
Starting at the corner of 2nd and Otley (by Oasis Market), the parade will first head east on Otley to 3rd Street (by Fareway) and then will head north on 3rd to Pattee, turning left and left again to then head south on 2nd Street through downtown!
PLUS don't miss Santa at the Hotel Pattee following the parade, or the Festival of Trees at the Carnegie Library Museum!
