The annual celebration of Independence Day at Shaker Pines Lake took place Sunday morning.
Enfield, CT - Keeping up a longstanding tradition, about a dozen watercraft of all shapes and sizes took to the waters of Shaker Pines Lake Sunday morning for the annual Independence Day Boat Parade.
In addition to the usual adornment of red, white and blue, entries this year included Jaws, a boat proclaiming "Keep Dancing Orlando" and life-size cutouts of the Bartles & Jaymes spokesmen of the 1980s.
Residents from both sides of the lake, including Cottage Road and West Shore Drive, among others, gathered at the lower Cottage Road beach for food, drinks and camaraderie following the parade.
