Pioneer Avenue in Agassiz is set to be all aglow with holiday cheer once more.
Winter Night Lights launches Dec. 13 (from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.) and Dec. 14 (2:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.), officially kicking off a seasonal lights display in Agassiz. Holiday lights will be on display all along Pioneer Avenue, on the historic Aberdeen Building, in Pioneer Park and at the Agassiz-Harrison Museum.
In addition to the holiday lights, locals are invited to enjoy visits with Santa Claus himself as well as the mischievous Grinch. Food trucks will be available and the traditional holiday mini-train will be running along Pioneer Avenue.
