Santa Claus To Lead Sophia Parade This Saturday
Santa Claus will lead the Sophia parade on Saturday riding atop a fire truck, with the Sophia Fire Department sponsoring activities for the annual Christmas tree party for underprivileged children. The event begins with a siren at 1 p.m. and gathers bands, cheerleaders, cub scouts, floats, and decorated cars from Sophia High School and community groups. After the parade a road block will raise funds for candies and treats to be given at the Dec 24 party, with Santa distributing candy and greeting children afterward.
