What a beautiful day for a Christmas parade! With temperatures in the mid 60’s, a light breeze and just the right amount of sunshine, Santa couldn’t have asked for better weather to make his debut on Hatteras Island! While the reindeer rest for a busy Christmas eve, Santa arrived for the parade in the Hatteras Village fire truck, bringing smiles to kids of all ages on Hatteras Island.
The crew at Frisco Rod and Gun had a float in this year’s annual Hatteras Christmas Parade.
Piney Ridge Boatworks, located in Frisco village, supplied our float in the form of their custom built cold molded 23ft “Pamlico” skiff. Our Christmas tree was made out of crab pots and fishing lures adorned it as ornaments.
We enjoyed tossing candy and Christmas-themed rubber duckies to everyone who lined Highway 12. Attached to the rubber duckies was a raffle ticket for a chance to win a Melissa & Doug stuffed animal that we are giving away on December 24th.
We hope you enjoy the photos below from the 2012 Hatteras Village Christmas Parade. We hope to see you at the parade next year! All photos by Michael Epping.
From our family to yours, everyone at Frisco Rod and Gun wishes you a very Merry Christmas and happy, healthy new year!
