Gerritsen Chamber Institutes June Walking
The first annual June Walk, to be sponsored by the Gerritsen Beach Chamber
of Commerce in cooperation with local churches and schools, was held Saturday afternoon.
Several hundred local youngsters and mothers took part in the colorful parade, featured by
elaborate floats and costumes. Shown are George Byrnes, 16, honor student at P.S.194, as
Uncle Sam. With him, as Miss Columbia, is Elizabeth Aase of 37 Bartlett Place, also an
honor student at the same school. They are riding in the float entered by the chamber. |
