FIFE AND DRUM LED THE PARADE.
The Parade
Winding down the last day’s events, but before the evening concert,
was the annual Windjammer Street Parade. As though on cue, and
honoring the efforts of the villagers and especially the participation of
the children, the fog and light rain lifted just in time for the parade. The
parade was a classic American small-town showcase. High school bands,
local fraternal organizations, the YMCA, the fire and police departments,
civic groups, clowns, homemade floats, honor guards, boy and girl scouts;
it couldn’t have been more fitting. If it didn’t bring a smile to your face
and a glistening to your eye, you’re in the wrong country.
