An Evening Filled with Holiday Magic

Members of Goderich Council at the Festival of Lights and Parade. (L-R): Councillor Randy Carroll, Councillor Allison Segeren, Councillor Vanessa Kelly, Mayor Trevor Bazinet, Councillor Liz Petrie and Councillor John Thompson.

Saturday evening was filled with holiday magic as the annual Festival of Lights and Santa Claus Parade brought the community together.

Crowds listened and sang along to favourite Christmas songs before kids joined Mayor Bazinet for the countdown.

Right after, families lined the square to watch floats, bands, all while waiting patiently for Santa himself.

The event was wrapped in spirit. Neighbours greeted one another with warmth while children’s laughter filled the air. The glow of the lights reminded everyone that the season is about joy, kindness, and gratitude.

As the countdown to Christmas begins, the Festival of Lights and parade set the perfect tone for a holiday season filled with community and cheer.
