Year in Review: Labor Day Parade
Labor Day held many events in the Downtown Area: The Jazz Festival, the Tigers/White Sox game, and the Labor Day Parade on Woodward, whose pictures are shown here. Many local unions marched in the parade, from Auto Unions, to the Detroit Symphony Orchestra Musicians union (shown here), who are still in the middle of a strike with the management of the DSO. There were also bands, and other organizations in the parade this year. The union presence that is in the parade is always a large one. Detroit has always had a large union presence, with the auto unions having the most coverage.
