ASTORIA COLUMBUS DAY PARADE STARTS FROM DIFFERENT LOCATION
*COLUMBUS AND ISABELLA WALK ON DIFFERENT ROUTE IN ASTORIA QUEENS
Astoria,New York
The Queens Columbus Day Parade had last minute changes for its starting location. "PC Richards' parking lot gets the okay after Astoria's Studios usual location was not available due to the NYPD's permit unallowance for a specific portion of the route" stated a source. The festivities are annually organized by the Italian-American Societies Federation of Queens County, aka FIAO. The Grand Marshal was Carolyn Maloney. Other local dignitaries like Mike Giannaris as well as italian representatives joined the celebration of the genovese sailor. " As usual, Columbus assisted by Queen Isabella, were waving to the crowd. This is an event for the kids of Queens, with various schools and bands participating" commented one of the helpers to the organizers. The weather with temperatures in the low to mid 70's and lots of sun made the event joyful, even though there was less attendance than previous years. The Queens Columbus Day Parade takes place every year on the Saturday preceding the Monday and legal holiday in Manhattan.
