The Kennedy Cardinals, with the help of local law enforcement, had a nice Halloween Parade in front of their school on Woodlawn. The path took them across Woodlawn so traffic was curtailed for a short while during the parade. The kids appreciated everyone's assistance with all of that, including the volunteers from the City, the High School, and other places who helped with the event as well, handing out candy along the parade route to the costumed students as they passed by. Big smiles on a lot of faces.
