Joining hundreds of others cities, Binghamton, for the first time this year, sported an impressive car menorah parade comprised of over thirty vehicles. The procession of vehicles, each equipped with a Menorah atop its roof, proceeded from Downtown Binghamton to Vestal and concluded at Binghamton University after driving around the brain.
The popular car Menorah parades are one more way Chabad-Lubavitch has been spreading Jewish pride and awareness on the festival that commemorates the struggle for religious freedom.
