17th Annual Bridge Lighting Exceeds Attendance Estimates

This year's Bridge Lighting in Sumner was even more successful than anticipated.  After shopping the sales, thousands turned out on the cold sunny day after Thanksgiving to kick off the holidays at the Old Cannery Furniture Warehouse.  Almost thirty vendors joined the fun at the Cannery to welcome visitors, enjoy the Christmas music and meet Santa Al.  

Many thanks to Sunset Chevrolet and Columbia Bank who sponsored the fireworks that entertained the community for about 10 minutes after the bridge was lit at 5:00pm.  Another great event at the Old Cannery Furniture Warehouse and another great example of our local businesses giving back to the community.

A big thank you to the Old Cannery Furniture Warehouse for sponsoring the
17th annual Bridge Lighting in Sumner, and another thank you to
Columbia Bank and Sunset Chevrolet, the 2015 fireworks sponsors.

Crisp, cold, sunny weather brought people out in droves and
packed the Old Cannery campus full of visitors there to
kick off the holiday season in Sumner.

The Harmony Kings perform at the Bridge Lighting for the
first time this year.  Love those Santa Hats!
