Thank Grucci for saying: "No Christmas, No Participation..."

Grucci did the right thing...

The Grucci Firework company will NOT participate in an annual Christmas event in New York.  The reason is the event changed its name from the Christmas Boat Parade to the Patchogue Holiday Boat Parade.

Thank Grucci for its principled stand!

  1. Thank you Grucci - I am glad to know someone has the guts to say no to those who want to remove Christmas in its right place! God bless you always!
