Back by popular demand, the 20th annual winter light parade in Twentynine Palms is tonight. Reporter Eric Knabe has the festive details..
Come and have a fun evening beginning at 5 p.m. with cookies and cocoa. At 5:30 the festivities start with a welcome by the mayor, followed by Christmas carols and the illumination of the holiday tree at City Hall. Santa will arrive on a fire truck to pass out candy canes before the light parade begins. At 6:45 p.m., watch the parade as it starts at Joshua Drive and Adobe Road and travels north on Adobe Road to Sun Valley Drive, lighting up the night sky. And be sure to look out for Santa in the parade.
