Grace Ave. Halloween Parade
Every year, our street throws a neighborhood Halloween
parade. Nearly all the neighbors in the Blackford Willow Glen area participate -
kids dressed up, as well as several adults. The parade is led by a high school
band and families and friends follow them down the street. At the end of the
street, the band played a few songs like "The Oompa Loompa Song" from Charlie
and the Chocolate Factory, "Broadway", and the theme song from "Raiders of the
Lost Ark" while their tall flags performed choreographed routines. After their
performances, they lead us all back. This year, the hit costume seemed to be the
7 foot Chewbacca. Of course, there were lots of princesses. Although most of the
boy's costumes varied, there seemed to be a handful of pirates and Harry
Potter's.Click a picture to see a larger view.
