New Plymouth Christmas Parade 2022
A huge thank you to the people of New Plymouth who supported the New Plymouth Lions Christmas Parade today, Saturday 26 November. The weather gods looked favorably on everyone (sometimes we are due a "lucky break"). It is great to bring on the season of goodwill after a couple of difficult years!
A special mention to the prizewinners; Marfell School, Santas Trees, Outrigger Canoe Club and Sentinel Homes, their entries were outstanding. There was a great variety of floats entering into the Christmas spirit, with marching teams, cheerleaders, dancers and skaters. The presence of our emergency services and helicopter trust is especially recognised. Our "Superheros" of real estate joined the NZ Army and some of our special charities in showing off New Plymouth's community spirit. the Taranaki Childrens Choir escorted a very happy Sant and Mrs Claus.
The Parade is a cornerstone project for our New Plymouth Central Lions Club, and we are pleased to do this with the support of NPDC, TMS, The NZ Army Cadets and the MoreFM radio team!
We wish everyone a happy and safe Christmas!
Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?
Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
