A moderate crowd braved the chilly wind Monday, with spectators bundled in coats and hats, ready to enjoy the annual Martin Luther King Jr. celebration parade. With bright sunshine tempering the nippy breeze, the day was perfect for a parade. People lined the streets, standing or sitting in lawn chairs, children playing as they waited for the Statesboro police motorcycles with flashing lights that heralded the beginning of the parade. The 2018 theme was "Steadfast and Immovable," said Pearl Brown, president of the Bulloch County Chapter of the NAACP, which hosts the parade and other celebratory events in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday.
