GNBVT Marches in the Parade for the World’s Largest Portuguese Feast

On Sunday, August 5, 2018, GNBVT partcipated in the 104th Annual Parade for The Feast of the Blessed Sacrament. The parade featured over forty different organizations from the Greater New Bedford community marching the one mile route from Brooklawn Park to the Feast grounds at Madeira Field. GNBVT was proud and excited to be included in the event. Our students from many different career majors, clubs, and activities walked with teachers and adminstrators in the parade. It was a hot, but fun-filled day for all those that participated or viewed the celebration.
