Crowds gather to see Santa among others at the holiday parade downtown Saturday morning.
MILWAUKEE---The 83rd annual Christmas Parade marched down Kilbourn this morning with crowds looking on from the sidewalks.
The parade, which was sponsored by Johnson Controls, started at Kilbourn and Prospect Avenue and ended in front of the Shops of Grand Avenue Mall.
The parade's theme this year was nourishment for the mind and body, putting an emphasis on education and food for those in need.
Crowds enjoyed city officials, like Mayor Tom Barrett, members of Milwaukee's Police and Fire Departments, local high school marching bands, and CBS 58's own Michele McCormack and Mark McGinnis.
