Santa Parade

The annual Santa Parade was held December 3rd, and it was the biggest one ever. The Tuccaro Group’s submission was a huge hit, including Rudolph the Red Nosed Truck and what was arguably the most colourful service truck ever to be seen in Fort McMurray.

Thanks to our employees and their families who worked so hard on the float and walked along in the parade representing our group of companies spreading Christmas cheer to the thousands of people who attended. We were also happy to have the Tuccaro Peewee Junior Oil Barons join us.

It was a great start to the Christmas season and we were happy to be a part of it!

This past week, the Wood Buffalo community and Corporate industry leaders gathered to honour the heroes of the 2016 wildfire at the 10th Annual Oilsands Banquet. The Tuccaro Group was a proud major sponsor of this important event. Attendees enjoyed a delicious meal and entertainment. 

The evening included many stories of the bravery, courage and dedication of First Responders and the community at large.  Rex Murphy, Canadian commentator and author was the keynote speaker for the evening. Murphy’s message was of the strength and resiliency of our community as result of the wildfires. The first responders of Fort McMurray are an example of the comradery that we all share. The wildfire, while devastating, has brought us all together determined to rebuild, move on and come back even stronger than before.
