Lots more photos from yesterday's Norwood Park Memorial Day Parade

This post is a continuation of a post that began on page one. If you just came from there, you saw the large group of from Taft High School that marched yesterday.

Well, a lot of the local grammar schools and Scout groups participated as well.

Here's a group from Garvey School.


And there was a large group from Immaculate Conception Parish, including several Scout groups and a contingent of junior high students.


Girl Scout Troop 41640, sponsored by the Congregational Church of Jefferson Park, marched in the parade...


...as did Lutheran Unity School...



... and Cub Pack 3958, sponsored by the Norwood Park Lutheran Church.



Norwood Park School also had a good sized turnout.


Also marching were Cub Scout and Girl Scout units from Edison Park Elementary School.


St. Thecla Parish had a large group participating.


And Boy Scout Troop 943 and Cub Pack 3943 from St. Monica Parish also marched...




...as did Cub Pack 3965 from St. Juliana's.



The Marching Eagles Band from Smyser Elementary School also performed along the parade route.


There are more pictures I could share -- my daughter Brigid will be mad at me for not including any pictures of the marchers from the Norwood Park Dog Association -- and I haven't shown any of the old cars that rumbled by. Some of these old cars were new in my lifetime, and I'm not thrilled by that realization. But I can't leave the parade without showing these two ladies, who marched behind a car bearing placards for the Norwood Park Historical Society.
