I’d like to thank everyone who participated in the Little Lucy’s 19th annual Halloween Pet Parade/Festival.
I started the Pet Parade benefit in the year 2000 to raise animal awareness in our community. The proceeds from the Little Lucy’s annual Pet Parade benefits are donated to various rescue organizations. This year, the proceeds went to help ARF of the Hamptons, a very worthy animal rescue organization.
Through the years, the Little Lucy’s Pet Parade has grown so much that it had to be moved from in front of my store to Agawam Park. It wouldn’t be the success it is today if it weren’t for the help of friends, customers and our local merchants, who offer their time, delicious food and great raffle prizes to help support the cause.
Thank you all, and looking forward to seeing everyone again next year!
