The 62nd annual Potomac River Festival parade in Colonial Beach, Virginia was delayed due to rains from a tropical storm. The Firemen's Parade joined at the end due to being rained out the night before, which was the first time this had happened in 62 years. The parade winners included Ashton Daycare for best float, Girl Scout Troop 3212 for best club/group/organization, and Westmoreland Volunteer Fire Department for best commercial pumper in the Firemen's Parade.
