The Downtown Courtenay Business Improvement Association, along with sponsors, presented the Comox Valley Christmas Parade on a sunny Sunday, Dec. 4.
This year’s theme was a “Gingerbread Christmas” that featured floats and walking entries on 5th Street through the downtown core.
Community groups and businesses put some hard work into their presentations. Dance and theatre groups, sports teams, choirs, non-profits and businesses were judged on their entries, with seven $500 prizes up for grabs.
