Macy’s Stamps
The post office has issued a commemorative stamp in honor of the Macy’s Parade for Thanksgiving. It has nothing to do with FRHS Band, but it sure is perfectly coincidental and timely. The stamp set is really great, depicting various aspects of the traditional parade. Here is the link to buy them from the USPS.
