The town of Conway will hold its parade on Sunday, July 4, at 1:30 p.m.
American Legion Posts 46 and 95 will participate in the parade.
Due to the Main Street road construction project along Route 16 in Conway Village, the parade will follow a new route this year. The parade is scheduled to go from Hillside Avenue down Washington Street to the four-way traffic lights, then turn east to the Irving Gas Station and head north on Route 16 to the northern entrance of Conway Marketplace.
Conway Village Fire Chief Steven Solomon said that he didnât think Main Street would be âtenableâ for a parade route due to the construction. However, he didnât want to see the parade leave the village.
T he toast might be virtual, the hugs on hold, but the sentiment is universal: Letâs ring in the new year and drop kick 2020 into the rear view mirror.
Things definitely arenât typical this New Yearâs Eve. The First Night celebrations in the streets, the big dance parties, the packed concerts in music halls â most are paused as we head into 2021. And plans donât just change from day to day but hour to hour.
Still, there are bright spots â retooled shows, some splashes of color and online celebrations with fun, games and a sense of community.
