River Park 4th of July Celebration 2020

This year’s July 4th celebration will look a little bit different to allow for social distancing, but it will still allow for us to come together as a neighborhood and celebrate the holiday!

• Car parade starts at Ciavarella at 10:30 am on July 4th!  The car parade is open to anyone who wants to participate, and we are especially encouraging (1) Classic Cars, and (2) Cars decorated for the holiday!  The route will be posted a few days before the 4th.  
• Food Trucks will be available at Glenn Hall starting at 11:00 am on July 4th!  The trucks are:
