Pageant characters

Part of the attraction of the Credit Union Christmas Pageant is the variety of big colourful characters like this clown, Pogo, on his trike.

This is Bruto, a big "friendly" monster. He's been a regular now for several years.


Over the years new 'characters' appear and others retire; it keeps the crowds coming back. This year there were 57 floats, as well as walking sets, bands, dancing groups and more than 200 clowns.
