With the Snowtober Nor’easter come and gone, North End families came out on Sunday for the annual Halloween Parade, sponsored by the Madonna Della Cava Society and City of Boston Special Events. Leading the parade were members from the Saint Alfio’s and NorthEast Italian Bands with music selections ranging from Mickey Mouse, When Saints Come Marching In and, of course, the Italian feast procession favorites. In addition to the parade, the party continued on Battery Street featuring inflatable bouncing games, a D.J. and family activities.
