A Word About This Year’s Sponsors!
The Cloverdale Business Improvement Association has been organizing the Surrey Santa Parade for 13 years and credit must be given to the organizations & individuals who provide financial & in kind support. Many of our supporters have been with us from the beginning and continue to believe in bringing Santa to Cloverdale and Surrey for the young ones.

SILVER SPONSOR | The Cloverdale BIA
BRONZE SPONSORS | Our Bronze sponsors must also get a big Thank You! It has been said numerous times that small businesses are the backbone of the economy; they too are the backbone of the Santa Parade. We have had numerous small businesses and organizations donate money and time to put smiles on the faces of people who come out at night to celebrate a very nice tradition.
BC Vintage Truck Museum, Downtown Surrey BIA, Driving Force, DVC Communications Ltd, Express Employment Professionals-Cloverdale, Island Equipment Owners Assn, Michaud’s Salon Spa & Wellness Centre, Shop Cloverdale Magazine, Surrey Crime Prevention Society, and the Surrey RCMP
We also have several local citizens who contribute small amounts of money every year because they love parades and they love to put smiles on Children.
Surrey Lacrosse proudly participates in both Cloverdale parades to keep our community sport, within the community. It’s a great way to reach many parents and youth from Surrey, and a fantastic opportunity to promote Canada’s game. Also, who doesn’t love a parade. It’s a win-win for Surrey Lacrosse each and every time from the people we reach and the kids we have participating. Thank you Cloverdale BIA.

This year, the BIA’s from Cloverdale, Downtown Surrey, and Fleetwood districts have worked together to grow the Surrey Santa Parade and the Big Rigs for Kids Parade into a larger event. Our goal is to have activity centres in each of our town centres that will be family friendly, fun, and entertaining. We work closely with the City of Surrey and the Surrey RCMP to ensure the event is safe. At each of the activity centres will be a number of fund raising organizations, including the Surrey Food Bank and Surrey Christmas Bureau. We are deeply thankful to all of the participants, the volunteers and our sponsors who worked together to make Surrey a very special place and to welcome Santa!
