I received a email yesterday they will discontinue them.

My take on that decision is they want the residents to step up and organize parades. My logic coms from back 10 years ago the holiday parades were second to none and the developer decided to cut the budget, and got the residents to step up, more golf carts etc. At that time, they reduced decorating the town squares by about 90% of what it was. These decisions are not what Harold Schwartz vision was for us.
