Members of the First Tryon County Militia fire off a round during the parade Saturday as part of the Fort Plain Street Fair Days.
FORT PLAIN — Hundreds of spectators lined up along Main Street in the village Saturday, waiting to catch a glimpse of the marchers in the parade.
As the participants walked by, young and old alike cheered them forward along their route on the still warm and sunny spring day. The sound was only interrupted by occasional rifle fire from colonial reenactors in the parade.
The event marked the last day of the Fort Plain Street Fair Days.
