The 2009 Orewa New World Santa Parade was fantastic! It was a festive, colourful and noisy time and all those that took part in the parade were delighted at the opportunity to watch the children’s faces light up with joy.

There were over 135 floats which included tiny tots television heroes such as Peter Rabbit, Nickelodeon characters Dora the Explorer, Sponge Bob and Square Pants, Clifford the Dog, Guggemusik brass band, magical stilt walkers, Hibiscus Hot Rod Club, Dallas the Clown and 100 children dressed up in magical costumes and Ronald McDonald, this years parade was a huge reminder that Christmas is fast approaching and a special day in many children’s lives.

Crowds began assembling early as families took advantage of key viewing spots with approximately 6000 people often standing five and six deep throughout the Orewa town centre.

Christmas is all about community spirit and with companies like New World Orewa, Fulton Hogan Ltd, Neville Brothers Cartage and Transcon Warkworth Ltd; it makes large community events like this possible.

The parade has taken on a Rodney District wide focus, attracting many commercial businesses and community groups from outside the Hibiscus Coast area. This is wonderful, said Leanne Smith because the community spirit is strong and the effort and time dedicated to individual floats is enormous.

It was a difficult task of judging the floats for this year’s parade.

Best non-commercial float- Hibiscus Coast Parents Centre
Best Commercial Float – Ruth’s Costume Hire
Best Team – Dae Han Tae Kwondo
Most Creative – Elaine Morheh from Waiwera
Best Child focused float – Kingsway Primary.

Destination Orewa would like to thank the parade’s major sponsor Orewa New World Supermarket without their continued sponsorship this community event would not be possible and Fulton Hogan Ltd volunteers - handled the traffic management, Neville Brothers Cartage and Transcon Warkworth Ltd who donate their trucks and drivers as float vehicles.
