Labor Day Parade Line Of March
Here is the lineup for Monday’s 53rd Newtown Labor Day Parade, as provided by the Newtown Labor Day Parade Committee. The theme of this year’s parade is “Write On, Newtown!”
Step-off is at 10 am from the corner of Currituck Road and Main Street, and marchers will follow Main Street to its end, then turn left onto Glover Avenue, and then turn left onto and follow to the end of Queen Street. Participants are asked to be at their lineup position by 9:15.
The judges and parade committee are seated in front of Bank of America. Emcees are stationed on Main Street near the flagpole, Glover Avenue (new this year), and also in front of Bank of America.
The Labor Day Parade Committee wishes to remind paradegoers to stand and salute the American flag when it passes, particularly the large National Flag that will be carried by a color guard at the beginning of the parade.
Residents and guests are also reminded that roads on and adjacent to the parade route, including Church Hill Road from Main Street to The Boulevard, will be closed to traffic beginning at 9 am. Without exception, all traffic will be diverted around the center of town until the end of the parade, which is expected to be around 1 pm.
