SPRUCE CREEK, FL - The 2008 Annual Toy Parade was held in Spruce Creek yesterday March 13th, 2008. Over a thousand people were in attendance at this, one of the most cherished celebrations of the year at the world-famous fly-in community.

The Toy Parade is organized by the Spruce Creek Flying Club and many resident volunteers and is unique in the world as it is held by and for the residents of the Spruce Creek Fly-In. In addition to a fantastic air show led by the Spruce Creek Gaggle Team. Kids of all ages were entertained by aerial skill displays by The Mavericks air show team.

The parade was composed of a vast collection of Christmas-themed warbirds, antique and contemporary aircraft as well as diverse vehicles and motorcycles. The always favorite "Spruce Creek Drill Team" and the "Creekettes" performed their coordinated skill displays while marching to the music.

In all, Another great day at Spruce Creek.
