On June 21, MOSES folks and others from throughout the community, young and old, braved the heat to participate in the festive Juneteenth parade. Walkers started at the Labor Temple and moved up South Park Street, which was closed for the event, to Penn Park.
The celebration at the park included music, dancing, games, vendors of souvenirs, and tasty food. Under the big tent, an array of community groups, including MOSES, provided information about their services. It was a day to reestablish connections and make new ones; a day to laugh, a day to hug, a day to remember, and a day to commit to a better and brighter future.
