RWK fielded a team of 25 volunteers on December 6 to provide communications support for the COR Parks Department’s 50th Annual Richardson Christmas Parade. I wanted to say “thank you” for to all the volunteers that assisted with the parade. I know it was a big hunk of time out of your weekend and I’m glad that you chose to spend it with the RWK.
The parade is very important to the City and I’m glad that we as a club can do our part to start earning our “keep” for the things that the City provides the club (namely some valuable rent-free equipment real estate). It’s important that we make a good, professional showing and provide a quality service to the Parks Department, and I think that we did that this year.
To recognize our contribution this year and for the many years we have been participating, the City awarded us with the 2025 “Holiday Helper” award, which was presented by Mayor Amir Omar during the parade awards ceremony and Santa’s Village lighting ceremony.
I especially would like to thank Don Klick KG5CK for again organizing this year’s parade effort. He got all of you signed up, in place, and ready so that you could assist. Well done, Don!
So thanks again for doing your part. We appreciate it!
