A 14-foot snowflake tree will adorn the First Baptist Church of Rincon float in this year’s Rincon Lions Club Christmas parade, with 20 individualized snowflakes, one for each student killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newton, Conn., last year, said Bill Gammon, FBC Rincon associate pastor.


A nativity scene will be at the base of the tree. The parade will take place Nov. 23, starting at 10 a.m.


In addition, the 7th annual Dickens Craft Festival will take place in the First Baptist Church of Rincon parking lot from 9 a.m.-2 p.m.
