The grand arrival of Santa Claus Friday night marked the “official” opening of the Christmas Season locally. Accompanied by Mrs. Claus and 2023 Miss Merry Christmas Madison Olivia Hebert, daughter of Scott and Courtney Hebert, Santa greeted local and area residents at the climax of the Crowley Christmas Parade, hosted by the Rotary Club of Crowley and the Crowley Fire Department.
