This year we will be near the staging area for the parade, close to Olde Time Lollypops. They'll have funnel cakes and cotton candy. We'll have kettle korn. You should be able to smell us from a block away.
We'll be helped again this year by the Massaponas High School Parent Teacher Student Orgainzation. They'll be helping us with the kettle korn and hot cocoa. We hope to see you there.
For the 2006 Christmas Parade, we set up next to the Fredericksburg Area Museum as a fund raiser for Massaponas High School Parent Teacher Student Orgainzation. The MHS PTSO provided several pairs of helping hands and we sold a bunch of kettle korn and hot cocoa. The parade's theme was Christmas in the Caribbean. Lots of Jimmy Buffet tunes, palm trees and steel drums. We loved it.
The 2004 Christmas Parade was our very first event. We made arrangements with the Spanish Club at Thornburg Middle School to do the event as a fundraiser. They provided two teachers and several students to sell the kettle korn and Larry did the popping.
We were across the street from Fredericksburg Baptist Church, next to the old bank. Imagine our surprise when we set up and found ourselves right next to a Christian motorcycle group. Even more surprising was the fact that they were giving away hot cocoa and popcorn. It was part of their ministry, so they gave away popcorn. Still, we set up right next to them, selling our korn. We must have been doing something right. We had very good sales and raised some money for the Spanish Club.
