Christmas Parade Pedasi 2025

A couple of nights ago Daryl and I went to watch the Christmas parade. It was scheduled to start at 6 PM, just as it is starting to get dark. As it is not unusual for start times to be delayed, Daryl and I ambled to town about 6:30. There were not many people out and about yet, so we walked to the big Pedasi sign to sit while waiting.

There were marching bands, both locally and from surrounding areas. We live close to the school so had listened to the band practicing and practicing and practicing…..

Local businesses were parading their decorated vehicles, and musicians too.

The grocery carts were packed with full size gifts that were being handed out to little people. Most every float was throwing out candy or gifts. One truck had a full load of balls that were thrown to the crowd.

This float was being prepared outside the school, which is quite close to us. The red roses were absolutely gorgeous.

The grinch in the town truck was throwing out goodies.

The parade lasted two hours, the longer it went on, the bigger the crowd became. And what’s a parade without big sparklers.

The biggest crowd was at the square, seemed like the whole town had come out to enjoy the parade.

On our way home we stopped for street food. The double smash burgers were made from scratch, cost $5, and mine was too big for me to finish.

We stopped to eat our burgers and watched a good half hour of fireworks.

Another Christmas has come and gone!

Cheers
