Rolling Parade from Lynn City Hall to Goldfish Pond
The Rolling Parade to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Goldfish Pond Association was Saturday October 2nd, 2021. It started at 10:00am from Lynn City Hall with a Lynn Police escort. The parade went from City Hall, down Market St, turned left onto Broad St, continued onto Lewis St and turned left onto Lafayette Park down to the Goldfish Pond. A horse and carriage from Boston Bridal carried the Marquis De Lafayette, played by Dakotah Bontos. The horse was followed by decorated vehicles of Goldfish Pond Association members. Lafayette spoke about the beautiful changes to the pond since he was there last in 1824. The Brickett school kids presented their artwork. Lafayette quoted Marie Antoinette "Let them eat cake" before striking the cake with his sword! Lots of fun at the pond and the weather was beautiful!

Boat Rides! and no one got wet!
This year, we remembered the 20th anniversary of the tragic events of the 9/11/2001 terrorist attacks and the victims that day. Goldfish Pond traffic island is home to a 9/11 memorial stone. The Lynn Fire and Police Departments came to the pond to lower our flag to half staff.

Annual Neighborhood Flea Market
