Santa makes a stop in Southampton before his big night

The big guy in the sleigh was waited for anxiously, especially by little ones, for one of his planned stops in Southampton on Friday, December 6th, before his big night coming upon on Christmas Eve.

Mother Nature also arrived bringing with her snow squalls but it didn’t deter the crowd who came out to see Santa and his parade.

The parade was led by the Southampton Legion Branch 155 Colour Guard followed by grand-Marshal Southampton Grande Dame Jane Kramer.
