On Saturday evening as dark set in, Oriental’s silky summer dragon made a run down Hodges Street, to the accompaniment of many pots and pans clanging. The dragon run, traditionally done on New Year’s Eve, made a special run to give the visitors a unique taste of Oriental. We're pretty sure no other town the cyclers visited had a dragon run...


Here is a shot you likely haven't seen before....the view from INSIDE the dragon as the dragon crew prepared.



After all was ready the dragon emerged from a South Water Street driveway



...and out onto Hodges Street for the dragon run (and lots of noise).
