HO HO HO Merry Christmas!!!!

I wanted to let everyone know that Pride of Muskoka participated with two Nautiques in the annual Bracebridge Santa Clause Parade this past Saturday. Thanks to Jim Marshall and Mike Boland to initially get the boats/trucks/trailers to Mike Boland”s home .Mike graciously offered his place as a staging area and a heated shop came in handy for the kids on a chilly December morning. Mike Boland and his entire family, plus Jane Jackson, Lana Bissell, Cyndi Zator and family, Jimmy Marshall, Wendy Boland, Mike Thomas and family all chipped in to get the floats ready Sunday morning. We were later joined by Neil Brown and Chris Bannon’s family .Chris’s family included exchange students from Korea who immediately had a lifetime memory to send home. Jim and Mike B. did a great job driving the trucks and keeping us on time. Mike’s youngest son set a Canadian record of over 1000 horn honks in one hour while sitting on daddy’s lap helping with the driving .The children piled on the Nautiques. Cyndi, daughter and friend Lindsey, Chris, Mike T and the legendary “downtown Neil Brown walked the parade distributing candy. It is basically a jog the whole time as we had a large supply of candy(thanks for the shopping Jane) and we tried to get as many kids as possible. I know there were times I looked up from a crowd of eight children with there little mitts full of candy to find I had lagged 50 yards behind the float. All and all it was a great experience and I am sure from the smiles and yells I received form the street it was greatly appreciated by our community. I think everyone involved is already looking for ward to next year. Merry Christmas everyone !!
