Christmas Day Multimedia Coverage: New Smyrna Beach Christmas Parade

NSB Christmas Parade / Headline Surfer®NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla -- We will publish our video coverage of the New Smyrna Bech Christmas Parade on Christmas Day as part of kurt multimedia holiday coverage. This was out sixth year of covering the parade, which is one of the biggest and most festive in New Smyrna Beach.

If there is one complaint, not only from us, but the citizens, is that the parade is too long. Even with a 4 p.m. start, it ends in darkness and that's not good. It was so long this time around that our video camera died after two hours.

Perhaps the City of New Smyrna Beach should consider a parade coordinator with volunteers along the route to keep it tight and moving. Long gaps in between tend to make the situation worse.

But overall, the Christmas parade is certainly a positive and worthwhile endeavor that brings joy to the holiday season.
