Parade of Lights canceled

The 21^st Annual Christmas Parade of Lights around the Holton Town Square, that had been scheduled for Saturday, Dec. 5, has been canceled now, due to COVID-19 concerns.

“Over the weekend, we learned that the county’s COVID-19 positive case numbers were going the wrong direction, so the decision was made today (Monday) to cancel the parade for this year,’’ said David Powls, parade organizer. “It’s disappointing but it just seems like the right thing to do at this time.’’
