Get out your flags and your red, white and blue. It’s time for our annual Fourth of July Parade with a wonderful cookout of hot dogs, and watermelon and other Independence Day fare.
The festivities will begin at 9:00 as we gather at Triangle Park, at the corner of Dorothy Louise and West Beverly Mae. At approximately 9:15, our judges will host a competition for the Best Decorated Bike, Best Dressed Dog and Most Patriotic Costume. At 9:30, we will embark, with the local police and firefighters (assuming there is not an emergency they have to attend to) for a lap around the neighborhood. We encourage everyone to walk, ride, drive, or jog along with us. Calvin will be pulling a trailer for those who do who want a ride.
This year we have a special treat as our postman, Willie will be joining us in full uniform and will be escorted in the parade in Calvin’s convertible VW.
After the parade, join us at the DEERC Grounds (The old clubhouse grounds at 6802 Dorothy Louise Drive) for hotdogs and other goodies.
This is one of our most festive events of the year. To see some pics from last year’s event, Click Here!
