DANVILLE -- Thanks giving is just around the corner, but some are already looking forward to Christmas. People packed the streets Thursday for the "Night of Lights" holiday parade.

It featured all the holiday necessities like floats, a marching band and, of course, Santa. Kids were put in charge of plugging in the lights along the way. After the parade, visitors took a final chance to check out the Festival of Trees.
