Dennis Kemp, Director of Sales, Visit Sandy Springs, is delighted to share that the Sandy Springs Lantern Parade was named the Top 20 Festival and Event Champion at the 2018 Southeast Tourism Society's STS Connections meeting. The 3rd annual parade took place on April 21. The parade started at Steel Canyon Golf Club and ended at Morgan Falls Overlook Park. Once the parade reached the river, paddlers from High Country Outfitters escorted select lanterns to the river for a floating parade.
