 Was I the only one who didn't know this?  I'm sort of embarrassed. They always advertise it as the Maplewood Halloween Parade so I just assumed.  One time they did refer to it as the Maplewood Chamber though, and the other time it wasn't Halloween at all, they just assumed it was because people looked so scary in the Village.
