Turning Point Parade Returns to Schuylerville Sunday

SCHUYLERVILLE — The Turning Point Parade returns to the village of Schuylerville this weekend and takes place along a one-mile stretch on state Route 29 and Broad Street in the village. 

The popular annual parade commemorates the American victory at the Battle of Saratoga in 1777, cited as historians as the “turning point” of the American Revolution for independence. 

“We’re back,” says Byron Peregrim, chairman of the Turning Point Parade Committee. “This year’s parade features nine musical groups, horses, clowns, you name it we’ve got it.”   

The parade begins 1 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 1, and takes place for approximately 90 minutes.  For more information, go to: turningpointparade.com.
