Thousands lined Christina St. in downtown Sarnia for the 36th annual Kinsmen Santa Claus parade Saturday.

The procession from Exmouth St. to Wellington St. included 43 entries.

Three American bands, two from Rochester Michigan and the Port Huron Northern Band, pleased the crowd.

A newly built sleigh behind a team full of reindeer made its debut with Santa at the helm.

The new ride was built by the carpenters union and set up on a donated flatbed trailer.
