Just behind Lithgow in the parade were 10Cambridge school children holding the Arts Firstbanner. The Harvard marching band followed closebehind, as the procession moved down Mass. Avethrough Johnston Gate to the Science Center.
When the procession reached the Science Center,everyone poured into a tent for a Cinco de MayoMexican Picnic. As people feasted on jalapeno cornbread and churros, the Sunday Jazz Band providedswing and jazz music.
