The parade, hosted by the Marshall Area Business Association, featured a line-up of vehicles playing holiday music while families dress in festive attire sang-along. Participating families made their way around the town, beginning at Marshall High School and ending at the Marshall Fire Department.
“I just hope that it relieves them a little bit of anything that they have been dealing with, and just bring a little hope to their life that we’ll get things back on the calendar,” Bergholz said.
