This annual tradition, brought to you by the Port Perry Lions Club and Scugog Chamber of Commerce, has put smiles on faces for more than 40 years. “Christ- mas Past, Present and Future” is this year’s theme! Check out the Chamber website for a list of ideas to help you plan your float! This year’s parade, on Saturday, December 6, is one of the largest and best ‘twilight’ parades in Durham Region. Don’t miss this exciting and colourful event. The parade starts at 5 p.m. from the fairground and winds its way along Simcoe St. south before heading though the middle of town along Queen St. and turn- ing right onto Water Street to end at Mary Street. Beginning on November 27, Santa will be visiting Port Perry on Thursdays and Fridays from 2 to 4 p.m., Saturdays 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. - 4 p.m. Be sure to stop by and say hi to our jolly old elf in red.
