The parade will leave Union Sanborn School at 10 a.m. The parade route will be Elm Street, to Main Street, Tilton to Park Street, Northfield. The parade will end at the Pines. There will be lots of activities at the Pines immediately following the parade; food, arts, crafts, children's booth, novelties, music, raffles and the horse pull.

The Old Home Day Committee will be selling prize calendars as a fundraiser all day. The day will end with a brilliant fireworks display at dusk. People can enjoy the show ffrom either the Surrette Battery Park in Northfield or Riverview Park in Tilton.
