No rain on our parade

The annual Colorama Parade heads up Midway Avenue Saturday as people line the roadway and kids rush after candy thrown by participants. After a bleak weather forecast for a festival weekend, officials of the chamber of commerce and the Ridge Riders found less to worry about after a soggy start to Friday yielded to better weather and crowds were plentiful.
