However, Friday´s temperatures are forecast to warm up with a predicted low of about 40 degrees. That fits neatly with this year´s theme of a Winter Wonderland; cool enough for the holiday spirit, warm enough to be comfortable.

See carolers, floats, animals and Mr. & Mrs. Claus as they arrive in Sonora at the end of this cheerful parade. The parade will start promptly at 5:30 p.m.

The holiday cheer will continue to fill the air, as the Sonora High School Golden Regiment Band will perform a concert at Courthouse Park at the end of the parade.

Downtown merchants will stay open late with extended shopping hours & refreshments.
