Roll the celebration into the morning as we honor the USA with our annual Independence Day Parade! Be sure to come early and enjoy or participate in our annual Pet Parade. All types of pets are welcome but they must be in a carrier or on a leash and properly cleaned up after. Our patriotic pets will kick off the fun and lead the main parade. Stick around following the parade to enjoy the Sandhills Farmers Market in Tufts Memorial Park.

It is free to participate in the parade: entries are being accepted from non-profits, businesses, civic groups, churches and families. Parade entry forms and pet parade entry forms are attached below. Parade entries are due by Jun 20th, 2025.
