LIBERTY, NY (December 5, 2011) – A new tradition was started in Liberty, NY on Friday, December 2. The 1st Annual Holiday Parade lit up Main Street and the holiday trees lit up the area in front of Town Hall.

There were fire trucks and a gingerbread house, dogs and ambulances, businesses and lots of people lining the street.

After the parade, children were asked to help decorate the tree with ornaments they had earlier made at the Liberty Fitness Center. The countdown to the tree lighting was led Michelle Semerano, Mike Sakell and Jason Dole of Thunder 102, and the actual lighting was accomplished by youngsters from the Boys and Girls Club. Trees were lit in front of the Liberty Town Hall and across the street near the Main Street stage.

Below are some photo of the event. To see more photos or to purchase prints from 1st Annual Liberty Holiday Parade, visit The Catskill Chronicle on Zenfolio.
