The pandemic cancelled last year's activities, and questions were raised about having the parade this year. However, thanks to state guidelines and recommendations, the West Ohio labor Council was able to plan and put together the parade.

A total of around 60 groups participated in the parade. The parade started on Main Street and Robb Avenue at 10 am and ended in Lima's Town Square.
