The theme of the 2010 Kiwanis Danville July 4th Parade is "Celebrating Our Heroes".
This theme was chosen because we have many heroes within our community, some more recognizable and famous than others. This does not take away from our local heroes. We may know someone who stands out in our community, a teacher, scout leader, neighbor or parent who has gone out of their way to be a hero and continues to make our community a proud place to live. We wish to honor all our heroes. So when you are planning your parade entry, it may be the perfect opportunity to recognize someone who is your community, neighborhood hero.
Please note that the July 4th Parade starts at9:00am and that spectator chairs may not be put next to the parade route until 6:00pm on July 3rd.
