🖤🧡 A GREAT BIG THANK YOU from Rotary of the Pocono Mountains!

The 60th Annual Barrett Township Halloween Parade was a record breaking one! THANK YOU to everyone! How amazing were the floats, participants and bands this year!?

This parade has grown SO much over the last few years and we're SO happy to see how many people make our parade part of their fall traditions. We love to see families and people of all ages smile in excitement as they hear the familiar sounds of the marching band approach. We're so impressed by the creativity and generosity of all our parade participants.

Rotary of the Pocono Mountains wants to shout a HUGE THANK YOU to all of the amazing people and businesses who made the 60th Annual Barrett Halloween Parade possible and to those who donate and volunteer to make our parade better every year - we really couldn't do it without you!

A huge shoutout to our very own Rotary member, Megan Wescott, who came to the aid of a parade spectator experiencing an allergic reaction during this year’s Barrett Township Halloween Parade. Megan quickly handed over her own EpiPen, which the individual used until medical help arrived and transported them safely to the hospital.

Moments like this remind us what community service is truly about — being there when it counts.

A heartfelt thank you as well to all our Rotary members and local EMS teams who immediately put our emergency plan into action. Your preparedness and teamwork helped ensure everyone’s safety.

Service Above Self — Proudly demonstrated right here at home.

🧡🖤 You all know Michael Myers! He has been a staple in our Parade for years! Jake - "Michael" brought A LOT of excitement to our parade, walking every year and never out of character, the kids and adults looked forward to seeing him. We are sad to hear of his passing - he will be missed deeply!

In honor of Jake and his family we were told there will be a new "Mini Michael" who has made posters to honor him!

Jake will be missed and we will never forget all the joy he brought to our parade! 🧡🖤
