ANNUAL WINTER FESTIVAL PARADE
Saturday January 30, 2010
12:00 Noon
Come out and enjoy the Winter Festival parade with us. Either watch the parade or sign up to be a part of it.
The parade starts at the New Hope-Solebury High School and marches down Bridge Street across the bridge into Lambertville. Prime viewing spots are in New Hope at Bridge and Main Streets and in Lambertville at Bridge and Union Streets.
The parade includes music by the Uptown Mummers String Band, Greater Kensington String Band, Woodland String Band, South Hunterdon High School Marching Band and other organizations including Lambertville and New Hope American Legions, floats and much more.
Floats, a traditional favorite, are the stars of the parade whether they are on a wagon pulled by hand, towed behind an auto, or self-contained. Families, friends, teams, community groups, businesses, and individuals are invited to register a float in the parade.
Prizes for the float competition – beyond valuable bragging rights – are $100, $75 and $50.
