Parade Tomorrow or No Parade?

According to weather.com, there is a 100 percent chance of rain tomorrow morning. A few hours ago, Scott Vorwald, the director of the Hudson High School Band, a key component in the parade, reported on several Facebook pages that he had received a call at 7:15 p.m. informing him that the parade has been canceled because of the possibility of rain, and, instead of a parade, a ceremony will be held at the Hudson American Legion Post at 7 Fairview Avenue.

A couple of people replied to Worwald's post saying that the Hudson Fire Department had not been informed and that the fire chief had confirmed that there was indeed to be a parade. 

Sadly, Gossips is not on the American Legion's media list, but Vorwald's report seems pretty credible. The American Legion's invitation to the City of Hudson Common Council stated: "In the event inclement weather, services will be held in the Legion Post." There may be more news in the morning, but with the high school band at the American Legion, it won't be much of a parade down Warren Street.
