We're in the final stretch of our summer campaign. Our goal is to raise $25,000 by August 9 to support the journalism our community relies on. Reader support is helping shape the future of local news.
As the Grand Marshal and chief sponsor, the American Furniture Warehouse owner will bring a fresh new look to the 2009 Parade of Lights…

Musical entertainment will be provided by the citywide $290-Your-Choice-Rocker-Recliner Marching Band. They’ll usher in the best selection of youth-bedroom-set floats that you can find anywhere!*
