The Independence Chamber of Commerce Thanks Boy Scout Troop 282.
Once again Troop 282 carried the American Flag for the 62nd Annual Independence Halloween Parade, organized by the Independence Chamber of Commerce on Saturday, October 30, 2010. Troop 282 would like to thank Matt Copeland, Ryan Muller, Nick Dunlap, Jacob McLeod, Ray Blann, and Jeff Dunlap for volunteering to be part of this great event.
It is the largest and longest running Halloween Parade in the Metropolitan Area. The chamber says about 5,000 people attend the parade each year. The parade included floats, school marching bands, dance clubs, fire trucks and other emergency vehicles, tractors, classic cars, and hundreds of ghouls and goblins.

Looking Sharp! Well done.
Thank you Mr. Norton. These young men did an outstanding job representing our country’s flag and our troop flag. Way to go guys!
This activity was alot of fun for me personally. It is moving to see people salute, stand at attention, or put their hand on their heart as the flag goes by. We definitely received alot of attention leading the parade. I encourage anyone who can to come out and be involved next year! You’ll be glad you did.
