Title: My Favorite Float In The Parade
Post by: jay on December 03, 2016, 06:19:36 AM
There were a few interesting floats in the Youngstown Holiday Parade.  My favorite float was a replica of the front of the downtown McKelvey's Department Store at Christmas time.   Strings of white lights in the shape of of a Christmas tree cascaded down from the sign in front of the McKelvey's replica.

Hats off to all, It brought back many good memories of past Christmas parades when the downtown had many wonderful stores - Strouss - McKelvey's - Penny's - Sears - Central Store. Th marching bands from YSU; Rayen, South, Chaney, East, Wilson, North, and Ursline, and awsome floats. Loved the way WKBN handled in on the news. Made it even more special.
