Twinkle Light Parade Seeks Entries

Monday November 2, 2009

Red or green? That's the theme for this year's Twinkle Light Parade, happening Saturday, November 28. Something about a Thanksgiving weekend parade makes the holiday season feel real.

The city is on the lookout for parade entries, and its new category of neighborhood association float could win your neighborhood the 2009 TLP Neighborhood Cup. It costs nothing to enter a float, and there will be prizes for "best of show," and best in the theme "red or green?" both of which win cash. The top three entries in both categories will win awards.

Fill out a parade application to enter, but do so by 5 p.m., November 13.

If you haven't yet made it to the Twinkle Light Parade, make this the year you do. It's great fun for the entire family, and afterwards, consider a visit to see Santa Claus and the holiday displays at the River of Lights.

This is by far the best Albuquerque event of the year! I never miss it. It is quintessential New Mexico. You won’t get this anywhere else. I urge everyone to participate!
