Here Comes the Holiday Parade

The Swampscott Police Association is again teaming with the Toys for Local Children program. To donate a toy bring it to the parade or to the police station.

The Swampscott Police Association is again hosting the Holiday Parade for the residents of Swampscott. It's Dec. 14 at 6 p.m.

The membership of the SPA takes great pride in this annual event. We again have partnered with TLC in an attempt to fulfill toy requests from the community. In past years we have filled a donated UHAUL with toys.

This year we are asking that residents bring a toy to the parade and give it to any police officer volunteering their time for the parade.  

We will also be accepting toys for TLC at the Police Station at 531 Humphrey St from now until Christmas.

As in years past, the Association does accept donations to defray the cost of the parade. If you would like to donate to the Swampscott Police Association please mail your donation to the SPA at 531 Humphrey St.,  Swampscott, MA 01907.

Thank you and look forward to seeing you on December 14, 2013.
