After the cancellation of a number of Christmas events due to COVID, the Vida community held fast and hosted their annual Christmas parade on Saturday December 19th. This is always an enjoyable event and a wonderful small town Christmas parade. This year, even more spectators and participants wishing for a merry Christmas and a sense of normalcy in this tumultuous year. The Prattville Dragoons SCV Camp 1524 again participated with a truck emblazoned with the camp's Christmas banner and Confederate Battle flags all around. Commander Waldo with his children, Quartermaster Myrick, and compatriots Larry Spear and Rob Schwartz participated throwing candy and SCV coins and handing out hundreds of mini-Battle flags to the spectators lining county road 19. Afterward, the gracious Vida volunteers provided a boxed BBQ lunch for all the parade participants and spectators. The Dragoons paused to enjoy this meal together sitting about the bed of the truck and enjoying this festive holiday event for as long as possible.
