A persistent drizzly icicle-like rain canceled the traditional Costume Parade that is lead by the Antwerp HS Marching Band. Despite the rain, the costume judging went on as planned at the firehouse in downtown Antwerp. The judges had a difficult time deciding who\u2019s costume was the best in each category. There are some creative residents in this town! Overall, Nash Zartman earned the Grand Prize status.
