A lot of fun was had by Cumberland Avenue Merchants and visitors to the Pop Up Prize Zone on Cumberland during the November 2, Homecoming Parade.
Thanks to all the Merchants who provided donations, gift cards, coupons, and swag to make this a great event. The donations were given by more than a dozen merchants and well exceeded $1500.00 in value. THANK YOU!
This year's Parade theme was "Sweet as Soda Pop" and lots of parade attendees found out just how sweet Cumberland Merchants are! Below are some pictures of the fun.
