Vida Alabama Christmas Parade

A number of Prattville Dragoons and friends participated in the annual Vida Christmas Parade on Saturday December 15th.  The morning started with a misting rain but it stopped for the parade fortunately and there were hundreds of spectators lining County Road 19 to watch the parade.  Thee Dragoons entered three vehicles including the purple Dodge Charger of Commander Waldo which had a couple Confederate Battle flags flying off the back windows, the Honda S2000 of Compatriot Don Drasheff and, the Ford F150 driven by Wyatt Willis which allowed Quartermaster Myrick to sit in the bed on a folding chair and toss candy along the parade route.  Compatriots Bill Gill and Tyrone Crowley also participated in the parade, riding along.  The Dragoons handed out hundreds of mini Confederate Battle flags as well as SCV coins and of course candy.  After the parade, the folks of Vida host all the parade participants and spectators in the community center there with a BBQ lunch including homemade desserts.  This is a very special country Christmas parade event.
