Join CUPE Manitoba at the Brandon Santa Claus Parade!
We are excited to share that CUPE Manitoba and the Brandon Area Locals have entered a Local 737 CUPE School Bus & walking group entry into the Brandon Santa Claus Parade again this year! We hope you will join us.
The parade will be held on Saturday, November 22nd, starting at 6 pm (see details below and poster attached).
CUPE Locals, members, staff, and their families are invited to show CUPE Solidarity this holiday season and join together for the parade.
This year, we will start and end the event at the CUPE Brandon Regional Office. Members are invited to park at the office and surrounding area, and Brother Jamie R. will pick up all participants in the School Bus and drive us all back to the office following the parade. Upon return, CUPE members are invited to join us to warm up and share a cup of hot chocolate and warm chilli at the Brandon Regional Office!
We ask that members please RSVP to the CUPE Manitoba office: info@cupe.mb.ca so that we can count you in for the warm-up gathering following the parade.
Details for Joining the parade:
Meet at the Brandon Regional Office at 5 pm. The CUPE 737 school bus will then pick us up and head over to the parade.
We encourage all those attending to dress warmly for the weather and will note for accessibility, that there is an opportunity to sit on the bus throughout the parade, as well as join the walking group in front of the bus.
Note from the Brandon Santa Claus Parade Organizers:
Get into the holiday spirit as local charities, merchants, and schools join forces to present the beloved Brandon Santa Parade—a tradition that children and adults alike can enjoy. Come and see Santa, his elves, and a variety of familiar Brandon faces in a magical celebration!
Support CUPW workers & Canada Post’s Food Drive!
As part of the festivities, Canada Post will be collecting non-perishable food donations along the parade route to support Christmas Cheer. Your generosity will help make the holidays brighter for those in need. And don’t forget – CUPW members at Canada Post will also be collecting letters for Santa Claus!
