New Norfolk Christmas Parade

A four-legged friend joined the
Derwent Valley Concert Band
in the Christmas Parade.
PERHAPS the biggest crowd yet turned out to watch the New Norfolk Christmas Parade earlier today. Held in cool and overcast conditions, the annual pageant had about 30 entries and each run of High St took about 20 minutes.
