Ok folks, mark your calendars as the 4th of July is just around the corner, and it’s time for our entire community to once again celebrate our nation’s Independence together!!
Our annual “Independence Day Parade” will take place on Thursday, July 4th, at 10 A.M. as we take to the streets to show our patriotism and pride in America!!
This year’s parade will stroll along the streets of Merritt Island with the float and parade participants starting at Merritt Island High School, heading South on Courtenay Parkway, to turn East onto Merritt Avenue with the parade ending at Edgewood Jr./Sr. High School.
If this route sounds familiar, it’s the same route as the annual Merritt Island Christmas Parade so get there early to claim your favorite viewing spot and set up your flags and patriotic gear!! To make things even better, once the parade has ended, our great partners just around the corner at the Veterans Memorial Center will host food trucks and all access admission to the Veteran’s Museum, so bring the kids and get ready for some great red, white, and blue fun!!
