Hundreds of families lined Center Street on Sunday afternoon for the latest installment of the Statesville Christmas Parade.
An unusually warm December day took a turn toward the nippy just in time for the parade, and the hundred or so entries did the rest to make it a day to remember.
There were Scouts of all ages, a dozen beauty queens, youth football teams, motorcycle clubs, firetrucks, cowboys and the jolly old elf himself.
As always, the marching bands and JROTC units did their high schools proud.
Throngs of people show up each year expecting a good show with little or no thought given to the work required to pull off the parade.
They’re rarely disappointed.Thanks, Statesville Jaycees, for a great Christmas present.
