More about the first weekend of the Apple Harvest Festival

We don't have numbers, but it was as clear as the weather that we had a huge turnout at the 47th Annual Apple Harvest Festival on Sunday
October 4th for the parade and for after the parade.  The teeming thousands were elbow to elbow watching the parade and by the time it got to Center and Main Streets the crowds were a happy throng, cheering, waving flags, smiling calling out to marchers
by name.  It was a great celebration of everything that is Southington and then some.

Amy Traver decided not to let the uncertainty of the weather on Saturday dampen her spirits. Amy ventured out prepared for whatever might come to explore what's old and what's new.  Especially, "what else but the apple fritters.", she said.
