November 21, 2019 – As the season of giving approaches, the Sulphur Springs Lions are preparing for a spectacular Christmas Light Parade.
The 12th annual Sulphur Springs Lions Club Lighted Christmas Parade, presented by Carriage House Manor, will be held in downtown Sulphur Springs at 7 p.m. Friday, Dec. 6. As the sky darkens, the festively illuminated parade entries will bring Christmas cheer to the viewers along the parade route.
