This year there have been some changes made to the parade. The parade will now start at 6:30 p.m. All floats, marching units and individuals should be present for tagging and line-up starting at 5:30 p.m. You can register your float ahead of time by emailing Connie Craig at jimconniec@hotmail.com or by phone (607)725-1748.
In previous years parking had been along the parade route. Due to safety reasons, there will no longer be parking along the Burlington or Berwick Turnpike. There will be parking areas in town and we will have these areas well lit and well identified. Handicapped parking, with stickers only, will be permitted to park on the drive next to creek at the Dollar General.
We are excited to announce,Towanda and Troy’s High School Marching Bands and North Penn Highlanders will be on hand to help set the pace of this year’s parade. You can also count on seeing many floats, marching units, antique cars, horses, emergency equipment and a host of individuals.
Representation from the Troy Fair Queen Program and the Bradford County Dairy Promotion will be in attendance, along with, our County Commissioners and current District Attorney, Al Ondrey.
The parade will end with our bake goods auction with proceeds going to help fund future parades.
Hotdogs will be available along with hot cocoa and coffee for a small fee and the traditional free cider and donuts will be available for everyone. Also this year the one and only Cosmic Crustacean food truck will be set up and ready to take your orders.
As always the traditional 50 cent pieces will be handed out to all our registered walkers.
