Plains started off the Christmas season in a big way this past Saturday.
Local merchants began the day celebrating Small Business Saturday with special events and promotions. Late in the afternoon the Plains school parking lot filled up in preparation for the Christmas parade.
This year the parade included 42 floats ranging from brightly lit personal vehicles, motorcycles, fire engines and an ambulance. The Southside Sparks 4-H Club’s float filled with members made an appearance along with this year's Grand Marshal Rob Vine, who will be present at both the Thompson Falls and Plains parades.
