The old saying that "Everyone loves a parade" was sure true in Chapleau where one was mandatory at all summer and winter celebrations.
Janice Selin provided these photos from the 1970s. Thanks so much Janice.
Remember the old fire truck. It ended up at Chapleau Hydro
The floats at the parades were always eye catching and created by business, industry, organizations and families.
Remember when Houde's Red and White Supermarket was part of the Smith and Chapple building on Birch (Main) Street.
Parades sometime lost participants as they passed the Sportsman Hotel
Citizens lined the route no matter the weather as the parade launched the celebration.
Chapleau area lumber companies always participated.
Sure that is Steve Prusky in brown jacket. Steve starred on Chapleau Junior "B" and Intermediate "A" hockey teams and also played pro in the United States.
A special guest, Jean Claude Cyr! Hi "J.C." and welcome to the parade.
