ONTARIO – They brought parkas, mittens, blankets and more to keep warm during the Winter Wonderland Parade in Ontario on Saturday, Dec. 4.

Most braved the sidewalk. Others watched through windshields – with car heaters running.

No matter the vantage point, everyone seemed to have fun as the 45-minute long parade worked its way west along Southwest Fourth Avenue to end in downtown.
