A Lloydminster holiday tradition is gearing up to light up the season again.

Lights & Sounds of Christmas will celebrate its 15th season with an opening night event on Nov. 21 from 5:00-7:00 p.m. at 5704 30th Street in Lloydminster.

The evening will feature a visit from Gerald Aalbers, mayor of Lloydminster, and his wife, who will help officially kick off the festivities. Santa Claus will also be on hand to meet children and families.

Guests can enjoy pizza provided by TJ’s Pizza, cookies from the Co-op Marketplace, and hot chocolate from Sticks & Stones. Big Brothers Big Sisters will serve refreshments and hand out stuffed toys to children attending the event.

The City of Lloydminster’s Block Party Trailer will also be on site serving hot dogs and offering marshmallow roasting.

Volunteers from the Lloydminster Bandits will be lending a hand throughout the evening as visitors take in the synchronized holiday lights and music display.

The annual display not only brings holiday cheer to the community but also raises funds for local non-profit organizations, including the Salvation Army Food Bank and Big Brothers Big Sisters Lloydminster.

Gerry has lived in Lloydminster since winter 2010. That detail is important as coming from the Caribbean he did not see green grass until May. Now an Alberta/Western Canada resident, you would be hard-pressed to find a stronger proponent of Lloydminster than the news guy that appreciates a healthy dose of rock music and dress code leather. His mantra is focus on one thing and do it well.
