Hundreds of children and bears turn out for annual Kincardine Teddy Bear Parade
Hundreds of children, parents, grandparents, family and friends, gathered at Victoria Park, Kincardine, for the annual Teddy Bear Parade.

There was a variety of activities for the children, including face-painting, prior to the parade, led by the Kincardine Fire Department. The crowd marched down Princes Street, to Lambton Street, across to Queen Street and back to Victoria Park where the children enjoyed more fun, prizes and treats.

The annual event was organized 21 years ago by Norm Annetts who continues to co-ordinate the Teddy Bear Parade with the help of a group of volunteers.
