The Habersham County 2021 Christmas parade was a success, with more than 50 groups participating.
Many participants decorated their vehicles, parade attire and lights around Christmas movies, this year’s parade theme. Lighted cars and parade floats had beloved Christmas movie characters waving to crowds, like the Grinch and his dog Max, Buddy the Elf, children on the Polar Express and the Peanuts gang around Charlie Brown’s Christmas tree.
Apart from themed floats, public safety vehicles were dressed up with Christmas lights and decorations to showcase their holiday spirit. The Baldwin Fire Department showed off their ladder truck with a real flame that burst from the side as it drove down Main Street, and Habersham County Sheriff’s Office members walked along with their float.
The parade began at 6:30 p.m. at Cornelia Elementary School and made its way to the Big Red Apple. A video of the parade will be available from Now Habersham in the near future.
