SEASON STARTS WITH A PARADE The Christmas season started on Nov. 24 with the annual Price Hill Thanksgiving Day parade. West Siders came out once again for the parade, that features schools, community groups, politicians and businesses celebrating on an early-morning Thanksgiving Day down Glenway Avenue. Tom and Mary Croft were the parades king and queen, while Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls had the honor of being the grand marshal. Parade-goers and parade participants gathered at St. Lawrence Church after the parade to mingle.
