FIRST ANNUAL
TRUCKER N’ TRADES HOLIDAY PARADE

Saturday, December 6th, 2025 • 5:00–5:30 PM (TBC)
Ganges, Salt Spring Island

After years of talking, planning, and dreaming — it’s finally happening, right here at home!

Fresco Refrigeration Ltd and the Salt Spring Chamber of Commerce are fired up to bring you the First Annual Trucker n’ Trades Holiday Parade.

We’ve had the blueprints sitting on the bench for a while… but now it’s GO TIME.

We’re calling on all tradespeople, truckers, and community legends to help build something unforgettable.

Show off your ride, your crew, your company, and your trade spirit — while spreading serious holiday cheer through the streets of Ganges.

Light it up. Crank the tunes. Go big or go home.

Pickup, service van, backhoe, dump truck — whatever you drive, deck it out in lights, decorations, and Christmas spirit. Let’s show the island how the trades celebrate the holidays.

• Prizes and bragging rights for Best in Show.
• Represent your trade and remind Salt Spring how much the trades give back.
• Let’s light up Ganges, make the kids smile, and kick off a brand-new Christmas tradition — built by the trades, for the community.

Already on board:
Windsor Plywood (already making reindeer antlers out of PVC pipe) + of course, Fresco Refrigeration, who is helping to organize this whole thing! Also: Heath Cooper • Horel Excavating • Key Pawn Trucking • Dan’s Crane

Parade Route (TBC):
Starts on Rainbow Rd, right on Jackson Ave, onto Seaview Ave,
left onto Fulford-Ganges Rd, past Centennial Park to Mouat’s,
then left on Purvis Lane, and right onto Lower Ganges Rd to finish.
