Pictures from the 2010 Christmas Parade
The Town Float was a 45' trailer provided by our good partners at SVCC. Riding on the float were the Mayor, members of Town Council and Town Employees & their families. The large platform was fully loaded from end to end. The sign was hand painted by local business owner Frankie Winn. (Photos courtesy of Ed Conley)

The Town Float was full of riders. Here you see Jennifer Beck and Mayor Billy Coleburn.
That is Council President Barbara Thompson in the red coat and Councilman Lee Scott in the leather Jacket and baseball cap.
Councilman Richard Eaton is wearing the Red Cap with the white fur and that's BABS driver Tyree Ford standing to his left waving to the crowd.
Here is a good shot of the "Team Legacy" entry. The riders are the #1 and #2 men at Fort Pickett, SGM Doc McGhee and Col. Tom Wilkinson.
Every picture of this float made it difficult to identify because the walkers blocked the sign but I think this is the Blackstone Primary Pre-K float.
Carrington School Of Dance was impressive to see in action.
These cute little show stoppers were from the top ranked Southside All-Starz! They flat got it done in front of the Judges' Stand.
Here, the top ranked Brunswick Marching Bulldogs prepare to lay down some serious moves for the judges.
Caddis Mfg were signed up as a float but the VW Beetle was what we got. We aren't complaining.
The Southside Shrine club wow the crowd every time! Shriners have fun helping kids!
