“We saw you at the parade!”

For the first time in a couple of years, the 4th in the Park Committee was able to run a complete Fourth of July parade. The in-person parade was cancelled in 2020 due to Covid-19 restrictions and then brought back only in a limited fashion in 2021. This year, however, hundreds of spectators came out to see the full-blown parade with dozens of marching units strolling down Como Avenue in St. Anthony Park, celebrating America’s Independence Day. Parade participants included a color guard, neighborhood units, bands, floats and music.
