Actually, I do have a thing for the sk boyos! And partially about the town!

Does the town have things like Christmas parades, and do the boys attend? Christmas decorated floats, school marching bands, ambulances/firetrucks? We have those where I'm from, and the whole town is there! It's beautifully decorated always

The folks there don't really have Christmas parades in Pinewood, but they do have parties! They host the gatherings either outside or in the high school gym, it depends on weather conditions. Sun and Moon love to help set things up and entertain the kids.

Most parade-esque celebrations occur in the summer, usually in the month of July. Sun is more involved than Moon, as Moon does not like being out in the summer heat. For reasons.

Description:

Victory Parade, New York, N. Y.

Camp Merritt, Colored Oversea Casual Replacements

This photograph, which is mounted on a card, shows a float in a victory parade.  The float, on the back of a flatbed truck, consists of about ten African American soldiers posing in a combat stance with helmets and rifles.  Two men crouch down by the side of a small artillery piece.  Other soldiers watch the parade from the sidewalks.  Coming up behind the float is a large inflated balloon, like a Zeppelin, with fundraising slogans around it.

When I made an earlier version of this poll, focusing only on the parades from the American parks and lumping all the parades from the Paris and Asia parks under the "Other" category, I was surprised by how many people voted "Other." So I realized I had to check out some videos of the parades from the parks overseas.

They've got some good parades at those parks. They reflect the different cultures' concepts of Halloween in very interesting ways. For example, the Paris parade has hardly any spooky aspects at all, but is a happy, sunny celebration of autumn and harvest time. Whereas the Tokyo and Hong Kong parades are in some ways darker and spookier than the American ones.

I do like them all, but still, I think the Boo to You Parade from Walt Disney World is my personal favorite.
