Happy Columbus Day!

Frankie&Jerry

Columbus Day is on October 12th, but the Columbus Day parade was held on the 11th. Starting at Washington Avenue and ending deep, DEEP in South Philadelphia. One of Philadelphia’s favorite sons, Frankie Avalon was this year’s Grand Marshal of the parade, along with Philadelphia radio legend Jerry Blavat in a celebration of all things American, Italian, and Philadelphian.
