Here is description of the Torchlight Parade from the Old Saybrook Chamber of Commerce

Name: Christmas Torchlight Parade
Date: December 14, 2013
Time: 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM
Event Description:
Holiday Tradition in Old Saybrook! Parade features more than 20 Fife & Drum Corps, Christmas floats, bagpipe bands and marching units. Leading the parade for the 43rd time is the 5th Connecticut Volunteer Infantry. This unit's history dates back to the Civil War. Public is encouraged to bring lighted torches, flashlights and/or lanterns.


Lighted Torches? Now that’s something I’d like to see. Average Mom’s and Pop’s with their 2.5 children walking in the parade or standing on the side of the road with their Lighted Torches.
