A stormy, joyful Hometown Holidays

in A&E/Community

“We need the rain,” has been the mantra in our drought state for years. And the organizers of Home Town Holidays would agree. Except they might add, “Did it have to storm on December 10?”

But those who braved the gusty, wet weather during the day and still lined up for the evening parade were rewarded with only a light drizzle as the show played on. The parade of bands, penguins, dancers, clubs and Santa did not disappoint a cheerful— if soggy—audience.
