‘Small town feel’ on parade

Fourth of July festivities probably constitute Crescent City’s biggest event, but it’s the parade that kicks the day off.

A lot of volunteer hours go into organizing the parade: entry forms have to be collected and organized into a lineup, a theme, grand marshals and judges have to be selected and city streets have to be blocked off.

This year, there are just under 100 entries for the Fourth of July parade on Saturday that is organized by the Crescent City/Del Norte County Chamber of Commerce.

However, there could be more, said one organizer.

“We still have some more coming in,” said Sharyn Loughry, one of the parade organizers, adding that entries submitted after the deadline won’t be judged.

Starting at 10 a.m., the parade will snake down H Street from 9th Street, take a left at 3rd Street and then a right at K Street to Front Street.
