Thank you to everyone who made the 2009 Studio City Holiday Parade: Stars Shine Bright a success! The parade had nearly fifty entries and over 2,000 spectators turned out to watch the parade despite the cold temperatures. Congratulations to our award winners: Eddy James Salon (Platinum Star Award for Best Overall Entry presented by the Studio City Improvement Association), Walter Reed Jazz Band "A" (Best Match to Theme), Notre Dame High School Irish Knight Band (Best School Entry), and Rock Nation (Best use of Animation: Sound, Lighting, Effects). While the famed Caroling Truck was missed again this year since that production is no longer in operation, spectators enjoyed an increase in music throughout the parade, stilt walkers, Miss California USA and two local competitors, and Santa and his elves on Vespas.

The Studio City Holiday Parade is a volunteer community effort, organized by the Studio City Residents Association, and made possible through the donations of community organizations and businesses. The SCRA would like to thank this year's sponsors of the parade:
Studio City Residents Association (SCRA) in conjunction with its’ sister organizations, Golf & Tennis and Beautification, has built an extensive record of accomplishments. SCRA with over 1800 member households, is one of Los Angeles’ premier volunteer groups representing all of Studio City.
SCRA follows a balanced approach to land use development that has helped stimulate the economic vitality of Studio City, while maintaining the character and integrity of the community. We have also helped in limiting neighborhood projects. The SCRA, with the Chamber of Commerce, started the highly successful Studio City Farmers Market. We have helped the appearance and air quality of Ventura Boulevard by planting street trees. In addition, SCRA has built several traffic islands under the Beautification Association founded by SCRA. We continue to be responsible for the landscaping and maintenance of the large traffic island at Radford and Ventura Boulevards.
Over the years, the SCRA has gone beyond traditional homeowner group concerns to address crime and safety challenges, assisted in informing residents about crime issues through meetings with our Police representative and helped in forming local Neighborhood Watch Groups.
Our community continues to grow and change and we will continue to watch over Studio City.
