With the Christmas Season just around the corner, it can be hard to “get into the mood” when you are still wearing flip flops and running your air conditioning. The first Friday of December for the last 17 years has been the night of the official kick off to the holidays, starting with the Christmas Boom Box Parade. Each year the Colorado River Women’s Council, a group of volunteers who love their community, has hosted this parade for the tri-state area. All proceeds from the parade go right back into the community to help local families celebrate Christmas. Toys, food, and clothing is their top priorities to distribute to local charities. Each year a Christmas Boom Box Parade Master is chosen to be honored because of their volunteerism to our local community. This year’s 2015 Boom Box Masters are John and Olivia McCormick. This dynamic duo are long time residents of Bullhead City and have contributed hours of volunteering and donations to several charitable groups in the area including the Boys and Girls Club, Mohave Community College Foundation, Rotary, Colorado River Women’s Council Leadership, St. Margaret Mary’s Church and more. The Christmas Boom Box Parade is easy to enter and usually boasts about 80 entries of school and civic groups, local businesses, and anyone willing to decorate and enter. The parade starts at 6 p.m. on Hancock at the corner of River Gardens and ends off Aloha Way. Santa Claus ends the parade courtesy of Morning Kiwanis Club. The first entry in the parade this year will be in honor of the Christmas Boom Box Parade founder Jan Ward, a community leader who recently passed away. Judges for this year include: Dick Whittington from Golden Vertex Mining, Sheriff Jim McCabe, Rep. Sonny Borreli, County Supervisors Hildy Angius and Steve Moss, CRWC Rep. Maureen Anderson, and Bullhead City Mayor Tom Brady. For a registration form or more information contact Parade Chair Cathy Stubblefield at 928-758-0177.
