Plenty of decorated boats lit the Bridgewater Channel and dazzled and shined for all who came down to enjoy the annual Lake Havasu Holiday Parade of Lights Saturday night.

The parade is in it’s 37th year and is a holiday tradition for many locals and vistors. Businesses, organizations and members of the community entered their decorated vessels and also got the chance to win for “Best of show” and other categories. This year’s Best of Show winner went to boat No. 8, by Dennis and Sue Brockman who were also the winners in 2021.
