In June of 1893, firemen lined up for a parade in downtown DuBois for the "First" Fireman's Parade. At seven 'O five, the whistle blew, signaling the start of the parade. Every year since, the firemen’s parade tradition continues. Firemen from all over the area process through the town as the rest of the community applaud their service. High school bands march along to entertain the crowds with their music. Main roads of the city are blocked off to allow the parade to pass by without pause. Dads, husbands and big brothers wave to their families from the back of their fire and rescue trucks which shine from days of polishing and waxing. The City of DuBois realizes the important role that fire fighters play in the safety of their homes and businesses. The firemen’s parade is a chance for the entire community to show their appreciation to these courageous men. >>> I am not sure who wrote this. I've had this photo and article for over 20 years and have used this for POTD a few times over the years.

Looks like an exciting Parade getting ready to start in downtown DuBois in the 1930's. Notice the dresses and the guy slacks. I don't see anyone wearing shorts in this group. Were they even invented yet? LOL

Here is a photo of the DuBois Parade on June 18th 1907. If the date is correct on the pole, this parade was held on a Tuesday. Any guesses on location?? Does it not look like snow or is that just the color from an old b&w photo??
