TRUSSVILLE — Prizes and award winners have been announced from competitions at last week’s Trussville Christmas Parade.
The first-place winner of the best float competition went to Sav-a-Life East, which was awarded $100. Supercuts won second place and $75, and ACTA Theatre took third place and won $50.
Grand Marshals in this year’s parade were Gavin Slay, Connor Staggs, and Sean Williamson, Hewitt-Trussville High School’s first-ever National Merit semi-finalists. Brinkley Rackstraw, 12, sang a rendition of “O, Holy Night,” just before all joined in the countdown for the tree lighting.
