July 4th Celebration, Parade Enjoy your celebration of American independence! Parade - 2PM If you remember last year’s parade you will be glad to know that again Sue Hines is organizing the parade. This will celebrate our country’s 232nd birthday. As it did last year, the parade will start at 2 PM on July 4th. The parade will follow the same route as previous years. Line up on Anchors Way, proceed down Main Street to East Benning. “For this year’s Fourth of July Parade,” said Sue, “let’s present the true heart of Galesville – its people, families, clubs, organizations and businesses. We need everyone to participate.” Some of the people of Galesville have participated but, this year; family groups are invited to march (or ride) in the parade. We are asking groups to carry identifying signs, such as, “The Jones Family.” This will allow the old and the new families to get to know and appreciate each other. Of course, we welcome the participation of many groups that are not located in Galesville. We enjoy having the horses, fire engines, antique cars and tractors, color guard, history floats, politicians, etc. from other communities around our historical area. Get in the spirit and help commemorate our country’s 232nd birthday. Start planning now to help make this year’s parade the best one ever! Let us know how you plan to will participate. Contact Sue Hines at 410-867-3541, or email: goodlord@comcast.net.”
