Those interested in participating as an entrant in the parade can contact the Chamber office for an entry form.
After the parade, family activities get underway at the city park. Stop on your way into the park to sign into your state of origin and don’t forget to purchase your States Day Commemorative buttons! Then grab food from our vendors before trying your luck at BINGO under the pavilion or enjoying the stage show, which shows off the talents of local groups.
