    Great parade, as always. And “All City” gets my vote. What a rockin’ band!

    Loved it!  Brought back memories of when I was in the All City Band.  The song they played was the “Sounder’s Theme”  Been playing that for years!!

    And the weather also gets a first place vote!

    Loved the Pirates handing out stickers to the slightly older kids.  Their cannon scares the hell out of my dog, but as I tried to explain to him, it’s only one day a year and they have a permit.

    Love Our local roller derby skaters.  Southside Rev is a great bunch of kids, and co-ed too!

Sorry, comment time is over.
