The annual Norwich Family YMCA Halloween parade steps off at 10:30 a.m. Saturday. The parade has been a Norwich tradition for over 50 years and coordinated by the YMCA for the last 20, said organizer Tom Revoir, who has helped with the parade for the last decade. “This is one of the greatest events and my favorite,” said Revoir. This year’s parade will feature at least 17 floats sponsored by businesses and local organizations.
“We have so many sponsors that have helped make this a success,” said parade organizer Julie Wallen.
The parade marchers will start from Beebe Avenue and step off from alternating streets up to Front Street, making their way up Broad Street through the center of town. They’ll finish in the parking lot behind Howard Johnson’s.
