‼️‼️ ATTENTION ‼️ ATTENTION‼️‼️

‼️MAJOR PARADE ROUTE CHANGE‼️

This year's parade is still happening as planned! However, there is a massive change to the normal route. With the bridge construction/replacement project on Route 522 in Beaver Springs, Penn-DOT has not approved us to utilize RT 522 (West Market St) nor the square. We are thankful that Penn-DOT has approved the road closure permit for a modified route. We realize parking will be extremely limited with this change, since the parade will be condensed into 4 blocks. Our choices were to modify the parade route or cancel the parade, and we at no point considered canceling it!

The parade route will begin at its normal location on Shuman St, at the high school, and travel East Main St onto South Main St as normal. The route will then turn left onto Church St and head towards the carnival field on Edmond Ave. It will conclude at the Middleswarth Chip plant at Furnace Rd and Edmond Ave.

It will not travel Furnace Rd! Plan accordingly! See the map showing the route.

The parade will be Thursday August 6, 2026, moving at 630pm. Plan accordingly when attending the areas best parade throughout the year!!
