NAUGATUCK, CT - Naugatuck resident Ella Niski of Weid Drive will be celebrating her 100th birthday on October 31, 2020.

Naugatuck neighbors will celebrating the special birthday on October 3, 2020 with a drive by parade. The celebratory parade will include fire trucks and cars decorated for the occasion. Participants are invited to meet at 11:45 AM in the McDonalds parking lot on New Haven Road.

If you have not had the chance to participate in a birthday parade that have become popular during the COVID 19 pandemic, I highly recommend being a part of this celebration. It is so much fun and I am sure that Ms. Niski will be delighted to see this drive-by celebration.
