It’s a perfect day for a parade

Rain held back until the very end of the 100th annual Halloween Parade Oct. 31. In other words, it was a perfect day for a parade.

Mayor Robert Donchez led his last parade up Broad Street and then down Main Street. He will step down from his mayoral duties this year.

Liberty HS whose world-famous marching band participated in the parade, also celebrates its 100th anniversary, as does Nitschmann MS.

Managing Director Bruce Haines drove a vintage automobile with a contingent of Hotel Bethlehem employees in their contribution to the parade.

Hopeton Clennon of Central Moravian Church, Carol Obando-Derstine of PPL and Shelia Clennen of Liberty HS were judges for the 100th anniversary Halloween Parade in Bethlehem.
