Thousands gathered for Apple Blossom Festival’s Tekni-Plex Youth Parade around Triangle Park in Wenatchee Saturday.

Longtime Wenatchee local Tanya has been coming to the Apple Blossom Festival Parade for 51 years.

“The best place in the world, Wenatchee Washington,” Tanya said, surrounded by family as they watched the parade go by.

Angela Cicchetti walked right outside of her house to enjoy the parade.

“It's good to see the kids in the community doing band and dancing and supporting what they believe in.”
