LYME — The sun shone brightly as the long parade of emergency vehicles, fire trucks and police cars wound their way through the streets and lanes of Lyme, East Haddam and Salem yesterday afternoon. Visit this link to view a wonderful video of the parade taken by Emily Gerber Bjornberg.
People stood at various points cheerfully gathered in socially distanced groups to cheer on all the vehicles, which were loudly sounding their horns and sirens. The parade, which included vehicles from Salem and East Haddam as well as Lyme, took more than 10 minutes to pass in its entirety.
There were signs of appreciation everywhere.
Each corner of Haddam Four Corners (in photo above) was populated with parade supporters.
After the parade was over, Bjornberg spoke for many when she said, “It was a lovely and endearing event.”
