There is no reason you all can't do both if you are so inclined . You could dress up prior to scoping your spot for the parade. You may all decide to leave the parade early because (and I love our Evalena) SWB sponsored events can really drag on.

So, do you have to have Santa gear to participate? All in or maybe just a hat?

Has anyone ever done this and could tell me a little about it? Is it a bar crawl?
