Hundreds of West Siders enjoyed the Austin Chamber of Commerce’s Tree Lighting & Parade on Dec. 5. The tree lighting ceremony happened in front of the 15th District Police Station, 5701 W. Madison St., before attendees paraded east on Madison to the Aspire Center for Workforce Innovation, 5500 W. Madison St. We were there to capture the West Side’s very own Winter Wonderland in photos.

Alongside the Chamber, other organizations that supported this year’s event include the Westside Health Authority, the Good Neighbor Campaign, and Toys for Tots, among others.
