Seasonal Photo of the Week

Ho-ho-ho. Our Photo of the week comes from Sunday’s Santa Parade. Clowning around was Paul Henderson multi-medal sailing champion, Member of IOC etc. His resume goes on extensively but he appears pretty happy on shore, walking the Parade route.

 

 

 

 

Here’s what Paul wrote in a note with his pic

Yesterday was the Santa Claus Parade Day in Toronto.

regards,

Paul Henderson OLY
