Why Did Elvis Cross the Delaware?
Get Ready for a Great 4th of July Parade
By Justin Bresler
4th of July Parade Founder and Organizer
Registration for the sixth annual Park Hill 4th of July Parade will wind down this month with the organizers expecting to shut it down around June 15. After strong registration through May, the parade is now expecting more than 50 entries and more than 600 people!
The parade will start at 1:30 p.m. and the route runs along 23rd Avenue from Dexter to Krameria Streets. The parade will once again be followed by a carnival and street fair. Everyone is welcome!
Check out and sign up at the parade website, at parkhillparade.org. As always, the parade will include a mix of new entries and returning favorites.
• A new cheer group called SASS – or Sistahs Athletically Supporting Success – which is affiliated with DSST Green Valley Ranch
• A couple of neighborhood entries have very mysterious and intriguing names. There’s one called “Elvis Crossing the Delaware” and another that’s just called “Brady Bunch v. Predator.” Needless to say, we’re excited…
• Not just one, but TWO groups of pageant queens, including Miss Colorado American Coed Queens and Ms. Colorado America
• The Synchronicities Hoopers will bring their artful hooping routines
• The Denver Electric Vehicle Council will bring several production vehicles that have been retrofitted to run 100 percent electric
• The Park Hill Pteros Rugby Club will be back for a second year
• The Children’s Music Academy is also returning
