(67,782 posts)Every summer there are about a dozen parades up/down Fifth Avenue. Seems like each Saturday a different group is marching (Pulaski Day, German American, Puerto Rican Day, etc.) The most interesting and colorful and probably the most well attended is the Pride Parade each June. The Parade in 2018 lasted more than 12 hours from beginning to end!
When I lived there I made sure I never missed one.
BTW, over the years the parade has become known as the Pride Parade.

(25,981 posts)I miss Hilary (we was robbed) and I miss Barney Frank. It's good to hear messages like this in this middle of all of the awful things we're having to deal with. It's a good reminder of how much better we can be, and will be, once the orange horror is gone. Onward. VOTE.
