EAST MOLINE, ILLINOIS (August 31, 2022) — We have had a record number of entries this year and we invite everyone to come and watch the 39th Annual Quad City Federation of Labor, Labor Day parade.
The Grand Marshal for this year’s parade is brother, Tony Bultinck, President of the Illinois State Association of Letter Carriers and of NALC Local 292.
The parade will include various Union organizations, high-school marching bands, elected officials, social-service organizations, and entertainment businesses from around the Quad Cities.
The parade will pull out of the John Deere Harvester Works parking lot, promptly at 11AM, traveling over to 15th Ave down to 3rd Street, and across the train tracks, where the parade will end.
“While we unfortunately had to cancel the parade for the past couple of years, I am extremely excited to have it coming back this year, we have missed seeing the community and families with children enjoying watching and listening to the parade as it passes by. We’re looking forward to offering our community a fun and entertaining time,” said Dan Gosa, President of the Quad City Federation of Labor.
Let’s all hope the weather holds out, as there will be no scheduled rain date.
