THE BANDLESS PARADE!
Happy Independance Day everybody!
I trust you'll be celebrating in your
community. Perhaps with speaches,
fireworks and, maybe, a parade. One
of the most unusual parades will be
held in Willimantic, Conn today. It
will be the community's 37th annual
"Boom Box Parade!" You see 37 years
ago the town was unable to get a
marching band for its 4th of July parade.
The local radio station, WILI, asked people
to turn out with their Boom Boxes to march
down the street while the station provided
the band music.! People of the town have
been marching or watching ever since!
Not a bad idea! Hope you'll enjoy the day,
whatever kind of celebration you've got
planned, and that all your NEWS is good
