If you were given the chance to write a prescription for a perfect parade weather day and have it filled, it would be the weather Fishers had for the 2017 Freedom Festival Parade. Temperatures were in the 70s with sun in and out among clouds scattered overhead. It was a bit windy, but that was the only complaint I heard all day about the weather.
Watching the proceedings from my perch across from the municipal complex along 116th Street, the parade got underway at about 4:05 and the last unit passed us a about 4:50. The crowd was heavy and deep along that stretch of 116th Street. Many families were on hand and all appeared to have a great time.
Below are videos of the high school bands and more pictures from the Sunday parade:
