Just when you thought Saint Nick himself was at the North Pole, he was one last stop…Headland, Alabama. For our Annual Christmas Parade would not be complete without Santa taking a few last minute requests. You can find him sitting in our town’s gazebo; just follow the sweet smells of hot cocoa and peppermints. Along with Santa you will see beautiful holiday displays and music to put you in the mood to admire the lighting of our town’s stunning Christmas tree…complete with ooh’s and ahh’s.
