About this user

The residents from the Hunts Point, Southern Blvd. and Longwood community have been celebrating this festive holiday for the past years by bringing the community together to come out and enjoy the evening with their families and neighbors. This has truly become a part of the community and has increased throughout the years, and has earned its title as the "2nd Largest Halloween Parade within the City of New York".

Twenty six years ago this parade, founded by Fr. Louis R. Gigante, started off as a small group of children that were gathered by a few community residents and agencies like SEBCO and SISDA, and they marched on the sidewalks. Back then Halloween Day was literally considered the day of mischief when stores closed before sundown and families feared an innocent activity of trick or treating with their children. Today in 2011 it is "THE Social Event of the year" in this Community. The community has taken back their streets; this is an event that many residents take pride and joy of being involved in. Many local social and civic organizations come together to showcase what they have to offer this community and their creativity in costume making, banners and floats. The parade begins at 5:30 p.m., assembling at Simpson Street, just south of Westchester Ave. The parade's route, as in past years will weave through the streets of our neighborhood and conclude at Fox Street in front of St. Athanasius Church. Prizes are awarded for different categories such as the scariest and most creative adult and child costumes. This year especially, group projects will be added to the categories. A special award is given for the banner or float that best represents the theme of the parade.

This year's theme is; THE 26TH ANNIVERSARY: "Healthy Groove Learn To Grow: Grow To EAT, Eat To MOVE".
As always, colorful balloons will be given out, candy will be distributed to the many children that march in the parade. Marching bands from Philadelphia and local community groups perform for the spectators of the parade and audience in the plaza. They come with much energy and pump up the crowd.

Please come out and join us for our big celebration here in our neighborhood.
For more info. please contact: John Calderone, Parade Coordinator, at 718-617-2800 or Lytza R. Colón Assist.
