A Dickens Christmas in Lockhart Reverse Lighted Parade
2020-12-05 10:00 - 20:30 UTC | Dr. Eugene Clark Library
Enjoy the displays & light of the floats from the warmth of your car as you drive alongside the stationary Christmas Parade! Entrance to the Parade Route begins at Main and Prairie Lea Street.
For over 30 years, the Friends of the Dr. Eugene Clark Library, Lockhart Chamber of Commerce, and the City of Lockhart have hosted A Dickens’ Christmas in Lockhart. This year finds this beloved event addressing the ongoing impact of COVID-19. The Friends of the Dr. Eugene Clark Library, Lockhart Chamber of Commerce, and the City of Lockhart present A Dickens Christmas in Lockhart Lighted REVERSE Parade on Saturday, December 5th from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.
What is a REVERSE Parade?
A REVERSE parade is a creative way to hold a socially distanced holiday celebration. In a reverse parade, the floats and other displays are stationary. Rather than large groups of spectators gathering along city streets, they will drive by the parade entrants along a designated route and remain safely in their vehicles.
Parade Route: The Parade Route for vehicles will begin on Main Street in front of the Eugene Clark Library. Heading North along Main Street Turn Right on Market Street. Turn-around at the end of the block and head back along Market Street. Turn right on Main Street heading North and ending at the Corner of Main and San Antonio St.
Additional entry information can be found on the Lockhart Chamber of Commerce website.
An afternoon of virtual Dickens Entertainment!
Virtual entertainment for A Dickens Christmas in Lockhart will begin at 10 a.m. on Saturday, December 5. Enjoy virtual performances beginning at 10 a.m. including the lighting of our library’s Christmas tree, music by the Lockhart High School Band, Storybook Theatre, routines by the Lockhart Lionettes, Hawaiian dancers and more!

"Coats for Kids" 2021
2021-12-11 09:00 - 12:00 (America/Chicago) | TX, United States
The 32nd Annual “Coats for Kids” Distribution day will be held on Saturday, December 11th from 9:00 am until 12 noon or we run out of coats. This year the distribution will be taking place at First United MethodistChurch 313 W. San Antonio Street Lockhart, Texas. Due to us wanting to make sure we do not contribute to this COVID Pandemic, we will only allow parents or guardians in the building to get coats for their children. It will be a ONE way in and another way out to EXIT. We will be taking temperatures before allowing anyone to enter and getting contact information if we need to contact people. Our goal and mission is simple, to get coats to all the children that do not have one and need one. If you have questions or need additional information, you can contact Clint Mohle @ 512-995-8757.
If you have gently worn or new coats to donate, or if you feel the generosity or need to contribute money to this cause, checks need to be made out to Coats for Kids. Please contact Clint Mohle with questions. We look forward to another successful Coats for Kids and could not do it without the support of many generous people and businesses in this community, as well as the help of many volunteers. This is truly a mission of love put on by PEOPLE. First Christian Church started this, but it has eclipsed our church as we have other religions and volunteers that have a tie in because of the love and calling for helping your fellow human beings out. We do not ask for proof or verification of income. We ask if you have a coat, need a coat, or is there a way we can help you to stay warm? We do expect or hope people do not try to exploit the situation and get a coat when they do not need one as this might keep someone without a coat from getting one.
