In keeping with tradition, the Edgewater Park community celebrated its 102nd annual Edgewater Park Labor Day weekend festivities with its always creative baby parade. Complete with imaginative floats for youngsters and their parents, the parade started from the Edgewater Park Volunteer Firehouse on Saturday, September 1 and included awards for the best entrants in the annual competition.

Benjamin Shaver was the ringmaster of his family’s float, ‘Greatest Show on Earth in Edgewater Park’ which earned second place.
