Alice and Ross, People of Action behind the Parade for 10 years
The 2024 Santa Parade was another huge success evidenced by the 1000’s of people lining the streets on a stunning Southland Day.
The 2024 parade held Saturday, 30th November, kickstarts the Christmas events in Southland.
Alice Pottinger, along with Ross Wensley, have co-ordinated the annual Christmas parade for the past 10 years, of the Southland Santa Parade's 25-year history.
Our Club has proudly supported this community event for 10 years, with members helping prepare floats, towing floats, marshalling, helping with costumes, water stations & more on the day.
The pre-parade working bee on the floats on the Tuesday night before the parade followed by a Fish and Chip tea has become a Club tradition.
