SUMMARY:Winter Solstice Lantern Parade
DESCRIPTION:Winter Solstice Lantern Parade\na Public Event\nThursday\, Dec 21 @5:30 pm\nAll Ages — Free\nNote: This is NOT a Cola City event. There’s no sign-up\, just show up. More info about the public event click here. \nThere is an annual Winter Solstice Lantern Parade at Riverfront Park that has been going on for nearly 10 years now\, but it’s only occasionally posted on any social media platforms. Apparently\, the regular attendees just know to be there on the Winter Solstice. I’m posting this event so more people are aware of it and to discuss the event in general. I’m not trying to suggest this group is responsible for hosting the event\, this is more of a public pointer and I will link the actual event if they post one for it from the Columbia Parks and Recreation page or the Riverfront Park page. \nComment on Cola City Homeschoolers FB group to let us know if you’re going\, so we can try to meet-up with others. \n
