A Great Day for a Parade

Posted on June 10th, 2013 by Mary in Teen Services

What a great day for a parade- the Boston Pride Parade. The stormy weather including the dark clouds cleared by 10:45am. It looked amazing outside. Like a new day.

Members from the Central Library Teen Council as well as students from the Madison Park High School GSA and our own librarians, Jennifer Koerber and Anna Draves marched with the City of Boston group sponsored by 2013 Grand Marshall, Mayor Thomas Menino who was unable to participate due to his recuperation. He cheered the parade on from his temporary residence in the city. Our group was given the honor of carrying the banner.

 

This picture was taken outside the BPL Central Library before the group walked down to their designated spot.
