The Labor Day Parade began on Monday at 10 am., with the NG entourage coming before the other schools this year. The Mam'selles did a clown routine and the La Petites performed a pom-pom hand routine to the music of Thunder and Blazes, played by the band. This performance led NG to win the highest parade award.
