Parade day was a Grande Experience for Team Brock

Heavy crowds lined the sidewalks in brilliant sunshine on Saturday, and more than 200 students, staff and faculty filled out the Brock contingent in the Niagara Grape and Wine Festival's Grande Parade in downtown St. Catharines. Brock cheerleaders posed for photos with toddlers along the way while other students, athletes and staff waved and high-fived their way through the procession.  Some of the Badger bunch are seen above, while in the lower photo, President Gervan Fearon (in the hat)  enjoyed his first-ever Grape and Wine Parade.
