Thank you to all the members and their families that walked with us in the 44th annual Solidarity Day Parade, we had a great turnout. We were happy to have so many friends march with us in solidarity. Senator Dan Stec, Assemblymen Billy Jones and Scot Gray, Hon. Judge Robert Muller from the 4th judicial district NYS Supreme Court and Paula Collins, Candidate for 21st Congressional district march with us this year. We also welcomed Sean Hennessey, a representative of the NYS DOL and many retirees. 
 
Thank you to Randy Woodside, Parade Co-Chair, for his help organizing the parade, ordering the T-shirts, and driving the truck and trailer/float. Thank you to Robby Brothers for organizing and distributing the T-shirts and candy. Thank you to Molly Hopper, Chris Wiley, Stacey Munson, & Tim Thisse for decorating the truck & trailer. Also, thank you to Andy Beaulieu for donning the minion costume along with Molly.
