Dressed in parkas, ski pants, boots, toques and mitts, many residents from Winkler and Morden braved the windy Friday evening to enjoy tree lightings, parades, fireworks and snacks!

The City of Morden kicked off their celebration with their first ever Winter Parade that saw many vehicles decked out in string lights. Below is a quick shot of the parade before it took off to spread Christmas Cheer!

Following the parade was the tree lighting and fireworks!

 

Once again, the City of Winkler lit up all of Bethel Heritage Park to create a glowing spot along Main Street. Attendees could enjoy songs from the GVC Choir, hot chocolate and warm up by the fire pit.

What a great way to kick off the holiday season!
