Spirit of Mount Washington Parade
Submitted by Sarah Keogh on June 14, 2010 – 11:38 pmNo Comment
The Spirit of Mount Washington Independence Day Parade is coming up on July 3rd! If you have never experienced the fun of this community event in the past, please mark your calendar this year for this not to be missed neighborhood extravaganza. The parade is a great excuse for catching up with neighbors and entertainment is provided for all ages. There are activities on Wexford Road (outside of the home of Chris and Caroline Tufts) to entertain the children while adults have a chance to chat. There are then some festivities in front of the house before the parade starts. Everyone (and all modes of transportation) participate in the parade. The parade route ends at Springwell, where the neighborhood is rewarded for the several block walk with cupcakes, drinks, lemon sticks, cake, and other treats. There is also a moonbounce and entertainment at Springwell. New this year, Playworks Baltimore will be on hand to organize games as well! Does this all sound too good to be true? Well, it comes off as a wonderful big party, but it does require neighborly assistance to pull it off. If you would like to contribute to the fun, please see some opportunites below (under the details about the parade).
