Annual Puerto Rican Parade Scranton Road, Cleveland August 4, 2024
The annual Cleveland Puerto Rican Parade was held Sunday August 4th in Cleveland. The Parade was put on by the Hispanic Police Officers' Association (HPOA) which has been proudly serving it's members and the greater Cleveland community since it was founded in 1986. Although historically comprised of Hispanic officers from the Cleveland Division of Police, HPOA proudly serves public safety personnel, from multiple agencies, of both Hispanic and non-Hispanic decent alike and shares a strong commitment to diversity and inclusiveness.
Here are some video highlights of the Parade. This video was shot at the corner of Scranton and Clark in front of St Michael the Archangel Church. We had to edit out some politics and mute a lot of copyrighted music. The line of cars went on far beyond this video.
