“With battery operated LED lights, and twinkling sweaters and hats, we anticipate people will get creative and have fun,” said Jennifer Adut, executive director of the Friends of Lake Sammamish State Park. The parade will be led by a giant snowman.

Decorated wagons, strollers, tricycles and more are also encouraged. The prize will be for the most creatively lit participants is an up close and personal visit with a reindeer!

Bonfires on the beach will take away the chill. Bring your own marshmallows and roasting sticks if you’d like. You may also want to bring a beach chair to sit under the stars and appreciate the holiday lights visible at homes around the lake.
