JEFFERSON The Jefferson Arts Committee will host its second annual Lake Hopatcong Boat Parade on Father’s Day, Sunday, June 18. All boaters are invited to join the festivities. The only parade requirements are that all boats must have motors able to maintain the parade speed of five miles per hour and must maintain a minimum of two boat lengths distance between boats. Although decorations are not required, everyone is highly encouraged to decorate in the theme of “Welcome to Summer.” The parade will start at the north end of the lake, off the Mason St. Pub. Be there by 11 a.m. The parade will take approximately two hours. The route will pass under the Brady Bridge, proceed along the western shore to Bertram’s Island, and then return along the eastern shore to end at the Lake Forest Yacht Club. Due to the height restrictions, sailboats are asked to join the parade, under power, on the south side of Brady Bridge. Prizes will be awarded for three boat categories best decorated, best classic and most original; and judging will be done at the reviewing stand at the Lake Forest Yacht Club. Everyone is invited to the Yacht Club afterwards for the awards and refreshments. Due to limited dock space, participants are requested to travel to the Yacht Club via car after the parade.
