According to Toms River Township Folklore,

The first Toms River Halloween Parade was held 80 years ago on October 31, 1919. It was sponsored by the Toms River Fire Company No. 1. There were over 500 participants in the parade which followed an exhausting route around town ending at the ball field where the prizes were given. The parade led off with the Lakewood Fire Company with their big truck. They were followed by the members of the George P. Vanderveer Post No. 129 uniformed and carrying a huge American flag. The Reliance Band and the drum corps of the local Red Men followed. Then came other Red Men and Pocahontas groups all in Indians costumes with was paint. Next in line was Steiner's factory. They had a large truck designed like a bedroom with a small child being put to bed. Behind the float were the employees dressed in pajamas made by the factory. They carried lighted candles. The Boy Scouts were next in line and were followed by a long line of entrants in various costumes. Following the parade there was a dance at Veeder hall with an orchestra from Lakewood

The countdown is on!

As this year's Halloween Parade Grand Marshal is Ex-Chief Albert McDaniel, in recognition of more than 50 years of dedicated volunteer service to our community. His commitment, leadership, and decades of service make this a well-deserved honor.
