LABOR DAY PARADEPerhaps the Labor Council’s most visible event is the annual Labor Day Parade, revived by the Council in 1986 after 64 years. The 2007 parade, with its "Commitment To Community" theme, was a great success!Forty unions participated, sending more than 3,000 members. A dozen bands, over a hundred vehicles, and several community groups accompanied the marchers and a large crowd turned out to cheer the parade. This year the Labor Council is sponsoring a new event intended to increase awareness of and participation in the parade — the Labor Day Solidarity Run.
