The Feast of the Holy Ghost parade set Sunday morning, cheered on by the Island community as it made its way up Circuit avenue, towards the town cemetery and on to the Portuguese American Club.
For nearly a century, the Holy Ghost Society has hosted a feast and a parade in Oak Bluffs. This year’s festivities take place once again at the Portuguese American Club, with the feast on Saturday and the parade Sunday.
With food, a parade and a very important crown, the Holy Ghost Society honored Queen Isabella of Aragon and the Island’s Portuguese maritime heritage this weekend.
For the first time in more than 50 years, the Holy Ghost Parade did not march through Oak Bluffs. But the rain didn't stop the fun and sopa from flowing.
