The concept actually began in Zurich, Switzerland. Many cities have used the concept over the years, including Kansas City, wh/ held their "cow parade" when I still lived there. It was a great fun!

If the Hallmark stores here don't have them, don't think you will find them. Since the cow parade was never something big here, I just don't think they are sought out items here. Charlotte may have had cows on display when I was living in Kansas City, but if they did - I never heard about it. Maybe someone else knows for sure. |

Cow parade.... cow parade... ok, I know you are looking for local places to buy little figures of cows, but I can't resist. You just reminded me that an old girlfriend of mine started this event in Brattleboro Vt. They call it
"Strolling of the Heifers" I guess that is a cow parade.
They even have their own website (of course)
Strolling of the Heifers: Friday, June 6 – Sunday, June 8, 2008.
They have an online store, but only sell tshirts - no figurines |
