One of the more creative floats in the Chapeau Santa Claus Parade was the “Redneck style Christmas”, showing off a particular brand of valley style.

CHAPEAU Nov. 24, 2019

The big man in red visited the upper Pontiac on Sunday, as the annual Santa . . .

Claus Parade wound through the streets of Chapeau. Inside Harrington Hall prior to the start of the procession, the local Lions Club was serving up hot dogs and refreshments. Club President David Brisard said that the event has been going on for several years, and that the parade portion is handled by the Chapeau RA. 

He estimated that they served food to 140 kids that afternoon, and thanked the Pembroke Giant Tiger for the donation of hotdogs. 

At 3 p.m. sharp, the parade took off from the RA grounds, winding its way through town, leaving loose candy in its wake.
