While the chill in the air kept some people away, visitors still lined the streets to wait for the parade which included holiday characters, the Grinch, Frosty, Rudolph and, of course, Santa.
Also there was Papillion Fire Department. Chief Bill Bowes who drove the decorated fire truck with the Grinch and comedy team, the Peppermint Elves.
The Christmas Tree was 35- 40 feet high according to employees helping with the ceremony and Papillion annual event. This year’s tree was donated by a local family.
Greet the holiday season and Santa Claus at Shadow Lake Town Center with an assortment of story book and holiday characters. The event begins at 6 pm with a sing-along with the Peppermint Elves, and children will be given jingle bells to ring in Santa’s arrival at Center Court.
The parade begins at 6:30 between the Nebraska Brewing Company and Cox Solutions store. The Papillion-La Vista Titan marching band will lead Santa, riding in a Cinderella carriage, to Center Court to light the Christmas tree.
After the parade, Santa and the assorted story book and holiday characters will pose for photos on Main Street. Carriage rides will be available for free, with boarding by Carhartt.
