It's Time to Sign Up for the Park Road Parade

The Park Road Association invites you to be a participant in 15th annual Park Road Parade, set for Saturday, Oct. 6, 2012. 

The Park Road Parade is zany, unique, and most of all, a celebration of all that is good in West Hartford and beyond.

The parade features bands, clowns, dancers, floats, antique cars, dogs of all shapes and sizes, sports mascots, color guards, businesses, civic and cultural organizations and town officials. Each year the parade draws over 7,000 people to Park Road neighborhood. 

Last year nearly 100 contingents marched one-half mile down Park Road, from South Highland Street to Jessamine Street.

Awards are given to Best Float, Best Overall Performance, Best Costume, Best Musical Performance, and Best Community Spirit.  Make your contingent the best it can be and win! 

Last year's winners were: Canterbury Retirement for “Best Float “and Hartford Magnet, Trinity College Academy for “Best Overall Performance,” as well as, Our Lady of Fatima Marcha Amizade for “Best Costume,” Calvary Fellowship for “Best Musical Performance,” and Conard High School for “Best Community Spirit.”
