It wasn't always this large. Founded in 1977 by the late Rev. Preston Marshall, it began modestly. There were drummers, dressed up cars and an elementary school band. Today, it has become a multicultural all day tradition in Liberty City.
WLRN will be there filming the festivities and you can catch the highlights that same night, Monday January 20th at 11pm on WLRN Channel 17.
