"Last year the parade was a great success and it brought the awareness of Chanukah to a whole new level so we decided to do it again this year," Chanie Krinsky, co-director of the Chabad Jewish Center, said in a statement.
The car parade and annual menorah lighting are a part a worldwide Chanukah campaign started by the Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson.
