Senior spring athletes showed up decorated and with lots of smiles at a parade held in their honor on Tuesday night.
Student athletes from the Genesee Region and Genesee County lined up their decorated cars at the K-mart parking lot on Lewiston road, and were provided a free t shirt by sponsor Vic VanVilet(Special Tees).
“They didn’t get a senior night, they didn’t get to have a season,” says Rich Hannan, Athletic Director at Byron Bergen/Organizer.
“I’m overwhelmed and so happy for those kids and their families, having one positive night to close their senior year.”
The Genesee County Sheriff Department and the City of Batavia Police Department assisted as the parade traveled through Oakfield, Elba, Byron, Stafford and Batavia.
At the end of the parade, Chiavettas provided chicken dinners at a drive thru service at Batavia High School.
