In lieu of the traditional Main Street Parade, the Bishop Chamber of Commerce is working with local businesses and groups to offer a drive-thru Christmas Light Display from 5-7pm.  There will be no charge to view or participate in the event. “We’re hoping to get at least as many lighted displays as we normally have parade entries,” explains Chamber Event Coordinator April Leeson. This year’s theme is “Home for the Holidays.” To register your business or organization’s display, contact the chamber at (760) 873-8405.
