Pine Creek "Parade Band" - 2011

To honor the memory of Fred Etheridge, and to maintain what has become a tradition, Pine Creek reassembled 5/31/2011 as the Pine Creek Parade Band to participate on the Podunk Bluegrass Music Festival entry for the East Hartford Memorial Day Parade. Unfortunately, thunderstorms caused the parade to be cancelled, but the band's spirits were not dampened as they had a great brunch and took photos of the assembly in front of a bank next to the eatery. With the instruments in their hands the photo shoot turned into an hour-plus jam that had nearby patrons gathering around. A good time was had by all, and perhaps it will happen again next year.
