Crowds came out for the annual Mt. Lebanon Pumpkin Patch Parade on Saturday. The parade strolled through the township’s Uptown section on Washington Road from the public safety center to Washington elementary school. The parade featured the police color guard leading the way, several fire trucks, the Mt. Lebanon High School marching band, as well as Sparky the Fire Dog, McGruff the Crime Dog, Baby Yoda, Elmo and other special characters and organizations. Children and families attending the parade also dressed up in costume. Local business handed out candy and treats after the parade. Trick-or-treating in Mt. Lebanon neighborhoods will take place on Halloween evening, Sunday from 6-8 p.m. Frank Carnevale is a Tribune-Review assistant digital editor.
