To the Editor:

In a follow-up to my column last week (“Will Current Events Rain on Neighborhood Parade?”), our annual, long-running Fourth of July parade on 105th Street in Beach Haven Park was a true success and done in the style to reflect the current times. As many sports enthusiasts say when their team wins the championship, “We did it!”

Though the sun was not shining, the brightness that shone on 105th Street was apparent Saturday in all those faces, many behind masks.
