We may be a little late sharing this, but our teens are still talking about the Palisade Parade of Lights from early December, so here we are!
Our Grinch-themed float was a hit, and the energy from our teens made it unforgettable. They threw candy to the crowds (until we ran out), then switched to glow sticks without missing a beat. Earlier that week, they'd helped create Whoville houses during art time, bringing the whole theme to life.
Watching them work together to build the float, engage with the community, and just have an absolute blast reminded us why moments like these matter. The pride on their faces as we rolled through downtown? That's what it's all about.
Thank you to everyone who came out and cheered us on. We couldn't have asked for a better night!
