Submitted by the Fourth of July Parade Committee
REGISTRATION DEADLINE: SATURDAY, JUNE 15th
This year’s 4th of July Parade theme is “Celebrate Hingham’s Natural Beauty.”
The Town of Hingham offers residents and surrounding communities access to many beautiful parks and conservation land, open spaces, a beautiful harbor area and waterways, and of course, the chance to admire the magnificent historic 1791 Buttonwood tree that stands majestically in Hingham Centre – right on the Parade route!
We invite participants in this year’s Parade to reflect upon the natural beauty of Hingham where generations have enjoyed the beauty and simplicity of some of the South Shore’s most lovely vistas, quiet forests, and scenic harbor views. We hope Parade participants will find inspiration for their Parade Entries in the natural beauty that has inspired the generations of peoples who have lived in the area, and those who live, work, and visit the Town of Hingham today.
The Fourth of July Parade Committee would be excited to have your organization and its volunteers represented in the Parade!
