I Want My Deptford Day!

About Deptford Day

  Deptford Day is held the third Saturday in May every year. The purpose of the day is to build a unity within the township, have an entertaining day for all residents and friends, and allow local service organizations to raise funds.

  The day kicks off at 10:00am with The Al Cunard Memorial Parade. This year the parade consists of more than 70 groups including String Bands, Little Mr. & Miss Deptford Day 2009, area mascots, local civic & sports organizations, fire and police apparatus, pageant winners, and for the first time this year the South Jersey Daschund Club!

  After the parade the festivities move into Fasola Park. Starting at a new time this year, Opening Ceremonies kicks off at 11:45am on the lower level stage. Around the park you will find vendors with offerings including various food items, games of chance, and crafts galore. Don’t forget to stop by the Deptford Day Committee tent to pick up a raffle ticket or two! This year’s Grand Prize is a Friday at the Phillies for Four. See the Raffles page for a list of the rest of the fabulous prizes.

  On the lower level stage this year we will have various acts including dance and karate schools, a magician and musical acts of every type. We are delighted to welcome back as our headliner again this year, Cry Wolf Life. This local rock band guarantees to entertain the crowd before and through our fireworks extravaganza. Enjoy the show this year while the music plays!
