Gulf Coast Corvette Club hosted Easter Parade for Gulf Coast Pediatric Care Center

The Gulf Coast Corvette Club wanted to spread some Easter cheer by hosting an Easter parade for the children at the Gulf Coast Pediatric Care Center in Gulfport.

Children were excited to see the fancy cars and even more excited to see the Easter Bunny and Sparky the Firedog. The kids received miniature Corvettes, Easter Eggs filled with candy, and Easter baskets.

The Gulf Coast Corvette Club was not able to host the parade last year due to COVID-19. Club member Tom Bocek tells News 25 he just loves to see the kids happy. “It’s our honor and our pleasure to do so. This is probably one of the most heartwarming events because we get to come in and give hugs and put smiles on faces. They have had a little bit of a tough time and we want to help them out with a smile.”

Each member in the Gulf Coast Corvette Club had to get a COVID-19 vaccination before participating in the parade.
