The Pride Parade made its triumphant return to New Hope on a very hot and humid May 21.

Highlighting the diverse communities on both sides of the Delaware River, the annual parade, the signature event of New Hope Celebrates PrideFest, began in Lambertville, N.J., crossed the New Hope-Lambertville Bridge and continued in New Hope down Main Street.
