Bronx Week Parade

 

Sunday May 17th was a beautiful day for the Bronx Week Parade, Food Festival, and Concert. The temperature was in the mid 80's and the day began with the Bronx Community Board 7 Memorial Day Commemoration before the rest of the day's events. Mosholu Parkway was closed on both sides with the Bronx Week Parade going on in the North Side, and the Food Festival and Concert going on in the South side of the parkway.

The Bronx Week Parade went off right after the Memorial Day Commemoration ended. The Police and Fire Departments opened the Bronx Week Parade, and they were followed by hundreds of marchers from community groups and organizations, and performers from the many schools in the Bronx. Bronx Borough President Vanessa Gibson was joined onstage by Councilman Kevin Riley, Bronx District Attorney Darcel Clark, and Assemblywoman Yudelka Tappia.
