Please join us to celebrate the great moment. Please email me at chaowu2016@gmail.com. We will meet at 9:00 AM on July 4th, Pointers’ Run Elementary School and Clarksville Middle School.
As always, this year’s parade will be held on July 4 beginning at 9 a.m. The parade stages in the parking lots at Pointers Run Elementary and Clarksville Middle Schools, travels the length of Great Star Drive, and ends at Signal Bell Lane at the 5th District Fire Station. It is not unusual to see chairs set up along the route early in the morning in anticipation of this community tradition. There are many great things about River Hill’s Independence Day Parade. The kids might say it’s the candy and trinkets or the opportunity to ride a float or march with their friends. Of course, who can forget the Lawn Chair Marching Dads and the blasting sirens of the fire trucks. The presence of our elected officials and veterans of our nation’s wars honor our democracy and remind us of the sacrifices made on its behalf. We can all agree that each Independence Day our diverse community is fortunate to have the opportunity to think about what it means to be an American and to celebrate our freedom.
Our team needs your help to celebrate Independence Day as founding father John Adams envisioned in 1776, with “pomp and parade”!
I have joined the parade each year since my daughter was two years old. It is fun and aspiring.
