Bellingham celebrated the 2012 Ski to Sea festival last Saturday with the traditional grand parade. The weather was incredible so Cornwall Avenue was packed with spectators. At nearly two hours, I think this was the largest parade we've seen here in Bellingham yet. The parade was finished by the Bellingham High School Alumni Band (bottom picture) who are marching for the last time due to shrinking membership. They will be missed!
I love the fun and spirit of the women in black with striped socks and red-and-white umbrellas. Local parades are so much fun!
ReplyDeleteLooks like we'll need those umbrellas here in UK for the Queen's Jubilee celebrations.
