The Parade
Overview
- Fun, food & music
- Awards for floats
- Awards for walking horribles
The origin of the Arnold Mills Parade is the theme of "Ancient and Horribles". First seen in the histories prior to the United States Sesquentential Celebration of 1926, the ancients and horribles were a grass roots phenomena which highlighted the love of the American people of all things "wild and wonderful". It is a tradition to which the Arnold Mills Parade Association hopes to encourage with its reintroduction, in 1994, of awards for ancients and horribles parade entrants. Costumed walkers and bicyclists are eligible for these awards.
