Thank you ALL so much for making the 2024 Manzanita Parade !! magical!

We appreciate everyone who helped:
our amazing volunteer team (led by Erin Laskey), city officials (special shout out to the Public Safety & Public Works), those who walked rode or skipped in the parade, those who sat along the sidewalks and cheered and enjoyed, our poster artist Lori Dillon, our local merchants who kept everybody supplied and hydrated … it was awesome 👏🏼 🇺🇸🙌🏼

See you next year at the PARADE😎. 

Huge turnout for the parade, and record number of parade entrants, made this a July 4th celebration one for the record books.
