Tony King and Audrey Perry welcomed viewers to the City of Baker’s 2025 Christmas parade and described families lining the route as the procession began, led by the Baker Fire Department and Baker Police Department.

"It is yours truly, Tony King, and of course, none other than miss Audrey Perry," King said as the broadcast opened. The hosts highlighted municipal participation and community programs, noting a recent toy-and-bike giveaway that organizers called a success.

The parade’s grand marshal was named as District 2 East Baton Rouge Metro Council Member Anthony Kenny. Mayor Darnell Waits joined the procession and, in a light moment, the broadcast relayed his quip that he is “not Santa.” The hosts praised local first responders and community leaders, and welcomed Councilman Robert Young and other city council members in attendance.

Schools and youth groups were a central feature. Baker High School’s award-winning marching band performed, and the Helix Maritime Academy entered a boat-themed float. Host Tony King thanked Preston Castile, identified on the broadcast as director of Helix, for the school’s participation and mentorship programs. The East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office and its D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) program also marched in the parade.

Hosts noted the family-focused nature of the event: children handed wish lists to Santa and collected candy and other "throws" from floats. The broadcast reminded viewers to follow the city on text and social media for updates; King encouraged residents to "come home to the city of Baker" and cited upcoming events including a Black History Month program in February.

Mayor Waits’s comments were delivered in a light, promotional tone and the broadcast emphasized community engagement rather than policy announcements. The live feed concluded after Santa’s appearance and the hosts signed off, thanking viewers and partners including local businesses and event planners.

The parade route was described on-air as running down Grama Road and included a mix of municipal units, school ensembles and community floats. Organizers encouraged attendees to stay connected to Baker’s Facebook, Instagram and YouTube channels for more city programming.
