The Lake Dallas Police Department is gearing up to ensure safety at the Merry on Main parade and Christmas tree lighting event tomorrow. In a recent social media post, the department outlined details for the upcoming festivities that are set to illuminate the town with holiday spirit.
The celebrations will kick off with the parade at 5:00 PM, followed by the tree lighting ceremony. Santa Claus is expected to make a special appearance at City Hall right after the parade. According to the Lake Dallas Police Department's post, "Santa will make a special escorted arrival to City Hall after the parade!" Officers will be strategically stationed to manage the crowd and traffic control, ensuring everything runs safely and smoothly. To accommodate the event, some roads will be closed starting around 4:50 PM.
For those planning to attend, the Lake Dallas Police Department also shared some tips to make the most of the evening. Parade onlookers can look forward to participants tossing candy, but are reminded to keep children clear of the street for their safety. Attendees are also encouraged to capture the moments with family photographs. The Lake Dallas Police Department highlighted their commitment to the community, stating, "We look forward to another safe and joyful downtown celebration with our community — see you there, Lake Dallas!"
