Water Witch Hose Company to Have Two Unity Parades in New Milford
New Milford's Water Witch Hose Company #2 has announced two "Unity Parades" to say thank you to the community for their support. Their emergency vehicles will be covering most of New Milford's roads over two days to show their appreciation.
To cover most of CT's largest town, there will be two parades on the next two Sundays (May 3 and 10.) The fire department announced on Facebook:
To unite the town in this time of uncertainty, to show the strength and love this community has Water Witch Hose Company # 2 presents The Parade of Unity. We will be traversing the town this Sunday and next to show our support and brighten peoples day along the way.
Please understand we cannot go down every road in town. Please check out our routes and if we do not go by your driveway please either come to an intersection close to you that we will be going through. Most importantly, please keep social distancing in mind and be mindful of where you park as to not be in the way of the firetrucks, and local traffic.
