Meet the 2023 HolidayFest King and Queen, Tim and Deborah Watson.
ROLE OF THE KING AND QUEEN
The King and Queen act as the Ambassadors of HolidayFest and they appear and attend many of the events, especially, the St. Nicholas Ball where they are honored and lead the dancing for the evening.
They also ride in the Annual Christmas Parade with three other couples who serve as their Royal Court. Each year the theme of the parade changes. In 2022, the theme was “A Very Frosty Christmas,” and the theme for 2023 is “Sleigh Bells Ring.”.
Each year the king and queen do much in the community, as do the royal court. The names of royal court members are coming soon.
Member of the Royal Court: Jenny Carr.
