A Hillbilly Christmas in Brandon

Posted:

BRANDON (KWWL) --Each August, the town of Brandon celebrates its community. It's been going on for mor than three decades, but only recently have they celebrated it in Hillbilly fashion.

 This year was specifically a Hillbilly Christmas.

The theme stirred up enough creativity that the town of just over 300 had 300 people participating in the parade, many of which are from out of town.

The parade featured 35 tractors and even a Hillbilly Christmas tree made of Busch Light cans.

After the parade the tractors kept driving for its annual "tractorcade", a 47-mile tour to Gilberville, Raymond and Jesup.
