Photos and Results: The Saucon Valley Spirit Parade

Beautiful weather attracted large crowds to Hellertown for the 2012 Saucon Valley Spirit Parade on Sunday, Oct. 21. Please see below for the complete results, courtesy of parade chairman David Heintzelman.

Update: The following message from parade chairman Dave Heintzelman was submitted as an addendum to his earlier press release about the parade results. "At the TV review station, Mayor Richard Fluck presented to Edwin Lovin Laub and Carl Laub a certificate of appreciation for the dedication to the success of the Saucon Valley Halloween Parade. They retired 2 years ago and are really missed. They never said no to anything that was asked of them. The Laub brothers are an asset to this community in many ways and our committee wanted to give them recognition for their many years of service. Thank you Mayor Fluck for bestowing this honor to them--they deserve it!"
