Santa Claus Parade

Dec 10, 2018

On December 1st, the Peterborough Humane Society took to the streets in the annual Santa Claus parade put on by the Kinsmen.  Over 85 floats took part, and the team from PHS (staff, family and volunteers) totalled over 35 humans and 6 dogs.  We are delighted to have been declared the winning float in the not for profit category!  Thanks to all our team who dressed up as the incredibles to celebrate the incredible difference we are making in our community.
