See you again on December 1st!

 

This year's 35th Annual event will be held on December 3, 2011, at 6 PM. 

We will have a great mix of local entries, regional school bands, celebrities, dignitaries and of course Santa Claus in his famous Glendale P.D. Helicopter!  You have to see that to believe it.  Make your plans now and meet your friends on Honolulu for another fun parade.  

 

We are very pleased to announce our 2011
