See videos from 9/28/19 here
Saturday, September 28, 2019 is the date for the Ragamuffin Day Parade. See all Fall Festivals in Bay Ridge here
Registration begins at 11:00 am. Here’s the form. The parade starts at 12:30 pm at 76th Street and 3rd Avenue.
The parade goes from 76th Street to 92nd Street on 3rd Avenue in Bay Ridge.
Any child can participate in the parade – there is no cost. Your child only has to register if you want their costume to be judged and to get a small toy (all the kids get a favor type toy….you may not think it’s anything, but kids love that stuff – so think like a kid).
What type of costumes do kids have? Some children have homemade costumes that are very involved, some have costumes they bought at Walgreens or a costume store. Many parents offer old costumes to people in the neighborhood. Some kids wear their jeans or shorts and a funny shirt and/or hat. There is no required type of costume…If your child doesn’t have a costume, they can still walk in the parade.
The people who run the event are amazing – they collect prizes and do a lot of planning for this event.
You don’t have to have a group to walk with, you can just walk with your child. Some people walk with their church groups, family, the people on their block, etc.
This is just a fun, community day in Bay Ridge – come out and enjoy the day!
I love seeing the homemade costumes, but I’ve never seen anything like this at our parade:
