A special Thanksgiving for many this year This is the time of year when giving to those who are in need is what makes our community so special. Last Wednesday, Paul Snow (Hallandale Food Bank) and Hallandale Beach Vice Mayor Bill Julian joined the Miami Marlins to make sure that families would indeed enjoy this Thanksgiving holiday. Long lines and happy families walked away with a complete turkey dinner, so it was indeed a special day for so many. For over four hours, turkeys were
handed out along with everything that goes into making a traditional holiday meal. Snow and his many volunteers continue to work year round to fill the shelves of the food bank to provide meals year round for so many in need. Vice Mayor Julian, like Snow and his volunteers, were joined by employees of the Marlins. More coverage of this past Thanksgiving week in Hallandale Beach on Page 10B.

Candy Cane Parade Celebrates 60th Anniversary on Saturday
HOLLYWOOD - Now in its 60th year, the Candy Cane Parade returns to the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk this Saturday, December 5 at 7:00 pm. This year’s theme for the parade is “Sea of Lights.” The Candy Cane Parade is one of the longest running holiday parades in the country. The festive and popular parade began back in the mid-1950’s by a group of Hollywood merchants as a way to draw patrons to their shops and businesses. Today it features dozens of lighted floats and vehicles, marching bands, cheerleaders, dance troupes and, of course, the jolly old elf himself, Santa. Parade participants toss out candy canes and starlight mints all along the parade –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– PARADE. Page 5A
