LACEY'S LIGHTED VEHICLE PARADE & LIGHTING OF HUNTAMER PARK Presented by Interstate Batteries This year's event took place on Monday, December 6 and it was a hit! We had over 38 entries and 40+ vehicles participate. The park was full, as parade watchers stayed for the annual lighting of Huntamer Park. Continue to experience the magic of the season! Swing by Huntamer Park any evening (5-8:30pm) between now and December 31 to enjoy the spectacular holiday lights. While you are there, tune your radio to 92.3 FM to listen to holiday music by local youth performers and stories told by Santa while you watch the lights twinkle.
