Ghouls, goblins, and an occasional Elvis flocked to Galena’s 40th Annual Halloween Parade on Saturday, Oct. 27. It was a great event for the young and the young-at-heart as thousands hit Main Street to enjoy the music, tasty treats, parade floats, marching bands, and, of course, the costumes. A shuttle ran regularly from the Walmart parking lot to ease transportation. Here are some photos from one of Galena’s most treasured traditions!
