On Friday evening, the community of Green River gathered for the annual Light the Night parade.
This year, the event also featured a chili cook off with Visa gift card prizes in each category of “best looking,” “most creative” and “crowd favorites.” Awards were given to Nikki R. for best looking, Tristen Lehnhoff for most creative, and Ben Lehnhoff for crowd favorite.
The night was also accompanied by musical talents of Talynn Lovato, Jenna Smith, the Green River High School choir and the Green River High School band. The event also boasted a raffle for a wagon full of toys and goodies as well as awards for the floats featured in the parade.
Jenna Smith, the city’s event coordinator, organized the festivities. This is her first year in the position of the event coordinator.
