Generations of families gathered along Crown Valley Parkway on a peaceful and brilliant Saturday morning to watch the largest and most creative display of community in the City’s history!  Last year, the parade was filled with beautiful equestrian units, patriotic and inspirational military tributes, spirit filled youth groups, classic auto clubs, talented marching bands and some of the biggest attractions in the nation!  Also included in the mix of fun and eclectic entries were this year’s Celebrity Grand Marshals.
