No date set for Penguins parade
Saturday, June 13, 2009
Officials this morning were discussing plans for a parade honoring the Stanley Cup Champion Pittsburgh Penguins, a spokeswoman for Mayor Luke Ravenstal said.
The spokeswoman, Joanna Doven, said an announcement will be made as soon as plans are confirmed.
The Pens last night defeated the Detroit Red Wings 2-to-1 in Detroit, a seventh-game victory that triggered spontaneous street celebrations in the South Side, Oakland and other parts of the Pittsburgh region. It was the Penguins first Stanley Cup win in 17 years.
