But I think it is sadder that the event no longer is held and that many people don't even know it ever existed, let alone experienced it many times in person as I did. ~RIP: Pueblo Room~

Just looking for the truth...Surely City Hall knows what's going on...well maybe not....

We've got our little baskets full of choclate easter eggs, and we're growing more excited by the minute.

Originally Posted By DAR I never saw the Easter Parade on one of my many Easter trips. But then again Easter was always finding a religious service. Going to brunch somewhere and then to hotel pool to relax during the day. We always avoided the Parks those days.

Originally Posted By Mickeymouseclub Does anybody know the time for the yearly parade last Sunday???? Maybe it does still exist without being televised. If you were at the MK and did not know there is a daily Flag Retreat honoring a soldier on Main Street and therefore did not see it does that mean it no longer exists? ~the Easter Parade Spirit Exists~
Originally Posted By Mickeymouseclub So it does not exist because the HokieSpirit says so and that is the absolute truth? Why would City Hall tell me the their would be the Easter Bonnet Parade on Main Street 0n Easter Sunday?
