Santa parade in Chaska goes on through harsh winter weather

Because of the winter weather, Santa Claus had to hop behind the wheel of a frontloader to take part in Chaska's Santa Parade.

CHASKA, Minn. (FOX 9) - It was a cold and snowy day in Chaska, but that didn't stop Santa Claus from taking part in a holiday parade like no other.

Santa wasn't behind the reins of a sleigh. Instead, Santa was behind the wheel of a front loader, that made its way through the bitter cold and snowy conditions, weaving through the city over the course of a few hours.
