Seward 5th Annual Christmas Festival - it's coming soon!   
Polar Bear Float
 
It seems to early to think about Christmas, right?  That may be true, but it's not too early to be putting together a float so you'll be all set for the 5th Annual Evening Lighted Christmas parade at 5:30 pm on Saturday, November 28th!  It's hard to believe it's been 5 years already.  The parade continues to get better each year!  This year's theme is "Favorite Christmas Stories" so there are lots of fun stories to choose from.  Maybe yours is Rudolph?  Maybe A Christmas Story?  Or how about that nasty Grinch (before his conversion)?  So get a group together, come up with an idea and get out there while the weather is nice - it beats stringing lights when it's 30 degrees!   Be a part of the 5th Anniversary parade.  Let's make this year's parade really stand out!

More information will be available in the coming weeks in the Weekly Update and at www.sewardne.com.
