The Harrison Fest Committee has removed our Gala Ad Book Order page from our website because you can no longer place an advertisement in the book. In the next few hours, the Gala book will be finalized in preparation to have the presses rolling to produce the book in time for the 175th Anniversary of Harrison Gala Dinner. We thank all the local merchants and companies who supported the Gala book by taking an advertisement. The book will see the light of day at the Gala Dinner to be held on Friday, September 18, 2015 at 8 p.m. in the Holy Cross Banquet Hall.
We are featuring one picture here that will appear in the book which we all thought highlighted the importance of Saturday's Harrison Fest Parade down Harrison Avenue. We honor our past and look to a bright future when a Parade kicks off and goes down Harrison Avenue.
Below is a picture taken from the apartment building on South 3rd and Harrison Avenue looking down toward Town Hall of the 100th Anniversary of Town of Harrison Parade held in 1940. A lot has changed in 75 years but much has stayed the same.
