Saturday, October 26, dreary weather and rain did not stop the communities from coming together to participate in or enjoy the festivities of the Munith Lions Club annual Halloween Parade.

Grand Marshal George Brewster of Brewster Tire led the procession, with the festive sound of the Stockbridge marching band filling the air. Floats, tractors, classic cars, bicyclists, and walkers followed behind.

The Henrietta Fire Department was on hand giving demonstrations of the new Lucas chest compression machine, on loan to the township. The Munith Lions Club presented them with a check of toward the purchase of their own Lucas chest compression machine.

With the motto of “We Serve” the Munith Lions offered free vision testing for kids accompanied by refreshments of cider, donuts and popcorn treats where shared at a social gathering in the Munith Methodist Church. Group leaders of Wake Up Stockbridge & Surrounding Communities participated in the festivities with a donation box setup for “Emergency Need Pantry” items and collecting Thanksgiving Basket items.
