What started because of a natural disaster has now become a long standing tradition in Southeast Kansas. Saturday afternoon the community lined the streets of Riverton for the return of the annual Christmas parade. The tradition began back in 1993 after the historic flood, which caused the city to lose several homes and the post office. Community members then put the parade together as a way to lift the area up during the holidays, and since then it’s become a fixture for the season.
