The 23rd Annual Children’s Medical Center Parade was joined by David Archuleta. Aside from entertaining estimated 400,000 parade watchers, the parade raises money for healthcare issues for children and is expected to bring in nearly $500,000 this year. The parade is broken out into five holiday-themed sections (Winter Wonderland, Toyland, Country Cookies, Sounds of the Season and Home for the Holidays) with a Grand Marshal at each one.
