Parade Cancelled In Kunkle

The Kunkle Fourth of July parade has been canceled…coronavirus. Annually, the parade is the biggest in the county and temporarily swells the little town’s population from 308 to around 1,000. With that, officials add no make-up event is in the works. Some 250 Port-a-Pit chicken dinners, already sold, will still be available for pick-up. Kunkle now joins communities across the state that have postponed or canceled Independence Day events of all types.
