12 Gun’s of Christmas Gun Winners!
This year we decided to change our gun raffle slightly and do the “12 Guns of Christmas”. The raffle started on Christmas night and ran for 12 days. The winners were picked by the PA Nightly Number and the guns are supplied by A. F. Boyers Hardware and Guns. Thank you to all our participants in helping us raise funds for the NL Halloween Parade.

Parade In Danger
Due to this years interesting weather and needing to move to the parade rain date, we are now in a shortage of volunteers. With this shortage of volunteers the parade is in danger of not being held. We need at least 5 people that are willing to help parade night from roughly 4pm to parade completion. We need helpers to line up parade floats and stage, kitchen helpers and bucket walkers. Anyone interested in helping the parade stay alive should call us at 484-265-1028 or email us at nlparade at yahoo.com by Wednesday night (11/2/2011). Please save the parade!
