Mayor Andrew Parise stated: last year's 2012 parade was a terrific success, between the huge number of parade participants and the phenomenal amount of attendees, it was a true inspiration to us all. To see so many people, young and old, from every walk of life, to come together to show support for our Veterans - was truly monumental."
