The 35th annual Island Farms Santa's Light Parade will light up downtown tonight starting at 6 as it makes its way along Government Street.
Organizers expect 40,000 to 50,000 people to brave the soggy weather to see St. Nick along the route, and then later at Capitol Iron on Store Street. There, milk and cookies will be dispensed to hundreds of kids, who will find Santa ensconced in a huge tent and can confide what they want to see under the tree.
Parade-goers are asked to bring a donation for the Mustard Seed Food Bank.
CHEK News will broadcast the parade live.
