Waiting for the parade

Nighttime parade kicks off festive season

Bundled up against the cold (L-R): Cohen, Brighton and Forde wait for the start of the Bloomfield nighttime Santa Claus parade. Hundreds of spectators lined the main street for the popular event that many regard as the kick-off to the holiday season. Dozens of illuminated vehicles took part in the parade. There was also a steel pan band and a marching band from Queen’s University.
