Though the annual Lighted Christmas Parade was canceled for 2020, Christmas spirit and many other events have not been canceled in Washington County.
In lieu of the lighted parade that draws thousands to downtown Brenham the first weekend of December, Grace Lutheran Church will host a reverse parade Saturday. Many floats that were set to enter in the lighted parade can register with Grace Lutheran and will be parked at 1212 W. Jefferson Street from 6-8 p.m. The public can drive through to see the floats.
