Long Branch Columbus Day Parade

Come join in the fun at the Columbus Day parade in Long Branch this Sunday (October 12) at 1 pm. The parade steps off from the corner of Broadway and Rt. 36 and proceeds up Broadway. The Emmanuel Cancer Foundation, one of the sponsors of the parade, specializes in pediatric cancer patients and provides support to the families. Their mission is to provide specialized services, at no charge, to any local family facing the challenges of caring for a child with cancer. Taking part in the parade will be several high school bands including Long Branch, Shore Regional, and Monmouth Regional. There will also be floats, antique cars, and much more. Area businesses are invited to participate in the parade free of charge; a wonderful way to advertise your business while celebrating this special day!
