The Mid-Atlantic Basset Hound Rescue Unit (hounds and handlers) enters the Livingston Manor Trout Parade.Hounds Add To A Great Parade
Who let the dog's out was a popular hit song a number of years ago but the addition of the Mid-Atlantic Basset Hound Rescue unit and the many "hounds" at the 7th Annual Livingston Manor Trout Parade on June 12 make this event a home town home grown event that continues to grow in popularity from year to year.
It is very evident that Livingston Manor really gets into this home town event and the drawing power this parade and events has was very evident with large crowds lining both sides of Main Street.
The entrance into the parade by the Basset hounds was an event within itself as the hounds and their owners-handlers joined the parade at the pedestrian bridge crossing the river to the school.
Like several parade watchers said, "who couldn't love a Basset hound."
In addition to the parade activities included the Arts and Crafts Fair, Specialty Foods, Livingston Manor Central School artwork in many of the Main Street store windows, s stilt walking, Karen Hudson of the Karen Hudson River Band and a new event, the rain barrel auction.
A great performance was also staged in front of the reviewing stand by the Forestburgh Playhouse Players.
Outstanding floats included Bud's Giant Brook Trout and Johnny Darling by Bud Wertheim and a great performance by the Mountain Tones Community Band.
Coinciding with the Trout Parade was the Johnny Darling Frolic and Festival at the Waterwheel Junction staged through the generosity of Shirley and George Fulton. Various entertainment took place from 2 to 6 p.m. and proved to be a great addition to the Trout Parade and its activities.
Kudos go out to the Catskill Art Society, the Livingston Manor Chamber of Commerce and Shirley and George Fulton for putting Livingston Manor on the Sullivan County spring-summer entertainment map.
