It was a full day of Christmas events in Dormont on Saturday, and Dormont-Brookline Patch wants to see your photos!

Whether you captured pictures of the Christmas parade, Cookies with Santa or the Christmas tree lighting, we want you to share them here by clicking the "Upload Photos & Videos" button.

The annual Dormont Volunteer Fire Department Christmas Parade kicked off the holiday events, followed by cartoons and hot chocolate at Dormont's Hollywood Theater. Cookies with Santa in the recreation room above Dormont Pool, and the tree lighting ceremony wrapped up the evening.

Upload your photos here, and we'll pick a few to feature as the cover photo on the Dormont-Brookline Patch Facebook page through the holidays.

Did everyone notice the American flags along the parade route? The flags were posted by Troop 23 scouts who were in Dormont at 7 am on Saturday. Thank you Troop 23 for your service to the community on the Dormont Christmas Parade day and for all the other holidays that the Troop, scouts and leaders, post flags in the community.

@MCG - I appreciate how you perceived the situation and I apologize if that was in fact the case.…Read More Like I said I was not privy to the exact conversation. However at the time it wasn't explained like that to me so I was unaware and handled it as I interpreted it. My apologies if I was mistaken.

@Debbie L. Actually the police have not been to the pub in a long time. The last time they were…Read More there was because I called them because a man who was intoxicated (which we didn't serve because he is barred) came in and refused to leave. And I don't ever recall seeing the fire department there. But to blame it on the Pub is a misconception because even if you closed the pub there are half a dozen other bars on the blvd that everyone would then frequent. While Bob Dobbs recommendation of reinstating prohibition might sound like a good idea good luck with that. Prohibition didn't prevent drinking in the 20's and it wouldn't stop it now either. Ultimately we can not make everyone happy but we do our best to run a safe and friendly establishment. And I make it my personal mission to prevent any and all fights. Since I've been the door man (almost 6 months) we have only had 1 fight in the bar which was quickly broken up. We are not perfect. Nor is any other bar. But we constantly strive to make improvements. We are a community pub. We love our community and everyone in it.

@Daria. My description is 100% accurate. Yes, the bouncer quickly handled the situation by claiming…Read More he witnessed "the whole thing". And he did. He witnessed my friends and I waiting to order a drink. That's all. Nothing more. Nothing less. The description is not harsh, it's actually toned down in comparison to what actually happened. The bouncer said, "I witnessed the whole thing and you were being a ****. One customer standing in line to order. One customer flicking another customer's hood and getting in his face. Which one was wrong? Apparently me since I don't go there frequently.
