How do you wrap up a week-long celebration of 300 years of history? With more parades... obviously! Along with band concerts, street fairs, fireworks, a grand ball, and even a firemen's muster. Our coverage of Salem's 300th birthday may be coming to a close, but we still have a lot to get through on the event line-up. Join Sarah and Jeffrey, your favorite Salem tour guides, as they reach their conclusion on the celebrations of a century ago.
