Essex Ed on Parade

Age: All ages
Price: Free
Location:
Essex Village

Essex Ed will make his big reveal when he emerges from Essex Boat Works for his annual procession up Main Street in Essex Village. Every year in celebration of Groundhog Day, a community organization dresses Essex Ed – a twelve-foot paper mache version of a groundhog - in a costume that recognizes a person or special occasion.

That organization and costume remain top secret until Essex Ed appears for his journey and to his place of honor at the roundabout on the top of Main Street.
