Christmas Eve always brings the Santa Clause Parade in Natchez. It is
a tradition dating back almost 100 years. Some might say it is a
rolling cocktail party where 100 men are escorted by policemen through
town, but it is also a charitable organization that distributes candy
and presents to underprivilaged children. A Santa is chosen each year
and he rides at the beginning of the parade in a convertable and hands
out quarters to children. Along with the stops to hand out gifts,
there are some parties along the way too.
Mollie, Stella, Kathryn, Jane and I went to the first stop at Linden
to see Santa and they boys. The girls quickly found the children's
room that included a train circling under a Christmas tree and a
buffet full of yummy kid foods. They also had a blast running around
outside and they didn't cry around Santa-and we were able to chatch it
on camera!! A Christmas Eve Miracle!
