As far as parades being bad for trafic, well, that's tough cookies. Parades bring a lot of business to the merchants around the square and without successful merchants, the squares would not be the attraction that they are. Like it or not, it's part of the Villages lifestyle.

One choice should have been as follows: I seldom go to the parades anymore, but I'm glad they have them. That's what I would vote for.
The poll is biased!
Yes, Thanks for posting. Parades are a very American form of participation & entertainment. Kids of all ages enjoy them. Didn't see the poll, so did not vote in it.
