The turnout for the Martin Luther King parade yesterday was good, at least the beginning of the route at Russell Park. I had the opportunity to stand out on my front walk to watch the parade as it began up the hill to the courthouse. At least 30-35 young people were sitting in front of my business watching the parade, and it was great to watch as the kids scrambled for candy being thrown from the floats. Sheriff Richard Nugent was seen holding the hand of a little girl as they walked the parade route with the floats. Many politicians participated, from incumbents to candidates. The homemade floats were very nicely decorated with balloons, and crepe paper, and the school bus float was an exceptional part of the parade. The Hernando High Band looked great with the leadership of Mr. Harin and Mr. Carr. Thanks to the City of Brooksville for sponsoring this wonderful event to promote harmony in our community.
