"We ride bikes as a big group and come here and watch the parade. It's a great last weekend of summer," parade attendee Kia Cvengros said.

Of course, one highlight for the kids was plenty of candy to collect. It's a neighborhood parade.

"This year we got up early, walked over and got a good spot," Remington Haymon said.
