The Saquon Barkley parade and celebration will be held March 24.
Barkley is considered by many of the college football top analysts as the No. 1 pick for the NFL draft April 26. He sure is bringing a lot of attention to the “little town that could.”
The event will begin noon with a parade from Ninth and Chestnut streets to Coplay Parkway, located at Second and Keefer streets.
The post-parade event will consist of proclamations, speakers, music, food and beverages. It will run until 5 p.m.
