Our annual Newville Halloween Parade kicks off at 7 pm!!!!

Here are a few reminders!

- ALL vehicles off the parade route by 4pm.

- Food trucks will be set up and open for business by 5 pm. We have Smokehouse Deli, Diesel and Dough Pizza, and Crazy Glazed donuts within Parsonage and West Streets.

-The Newville Historical Society has decided not to compete against the food trucks and our local restaurants, instead they will be selling hot chocolate, cider and sweets at 1 Parsonage Street. Stop in, say "hi" and grab a snack. This is one of their fundraisers so please think about putting a couple of dollars in the tip jar to help them out.

- There will be a Handicap Accessible Porta Pot located by the old Boro Building on W Glebe Ave!

-For those participating in the parade, please be at your staging area by 5:30 pm or as soon as you can! It gets busy and it is much easier to get to your staging area with time on your side!

-For those staging at Broad Street enter from Cemetary Road off of Rt 641 over to the Broad Street areas!

- There will be a food vendor, Free Style Foodie, located on Pennsylvania Avenue off of Broad Street for those staging in that area and would like food!

- There will be a Porta Pot for Broad Street located in the Pennsylvania Ave area!

- The Lion’s Club will offer a $5.00 meal option at the Fairgrounds for those staging there! Cash only please!

Parade Attendees 👨‍💼👩‍🔧 :

-Please stand for the flag as the Marine Corps League color guard leads the parade.

- Be kind and polite to your fellow parade patrons around you.

-Greet everyone around you with a smile and applause!

-Please use the containers that will be provided for all your trash!!!! Please don’t liter our streets/town!

- Thank the many volunteers that will have bright colored vests on.

-Have a great time and enjoy the best parade in Cumberland County!!!
