Dear Lincoln community,
We are writing to invite you to join the town of Lincoln’s annual Fourth of July Parade. This year’s parade theme is “Keeping Lincoln Great!” With a feisty Presidential election on the horizon, we thought this was a perfect time to remind residents that Lincoln has always been great… and July 4th is the chance to show it!
With greatness in mind, our parade marshall is outgoing Selectman (and former Parks and Recreation Commission Chair) Noah Eckhouse. Noah has guided the town for the past six years with wisdom, vision and creativity, and this is our chance to honor his service.
We invite you to join us, rain or shine, with your best float yet. The stakes are high again this year as the first-place winner will have their team picture displayed in Town Hall. Also, floats can win special trophies. Take your float to the next level this year and show everyone what it means to Keep Lincoln Great!
You can download a parade application online and email it to eventssubcommittee@gmail.com, or by mail to the Parks and Recreation Department at 16 Lincoln Road. On the morning of July 4, please meet on Ballfield Road before 9:45 a.m. We’ll be expecting you!
Sincerely,
The 2016 Events Subcommittee Parade Crew: Ali Dwyer, Maggie Dwyer, Eve Montie, Harrison Reiter and Nick Virkler
