Slater 4th of July Parade

  • Slater Slater, IA (map)

You are invited to walk or roll with us in the parade!

Bikes, wagons, skates, wheelchairs, kids and leashed pets are all welcome!

We will have some candy but if you can bring some in a basket or canvas bag too that’s appreciated!

We will be there at 8 am, vehicle drivers should arrive by 8:30 am,  other volunteers don't need to come until 9 am. Parade at 10 am.

We won't know our position in the parade until we register that morning. Start at the beginning of the lineup and walk back until you find us. Look for a grey Chevy Volt with Democratic signage and our banner.

Line up on Greene Street between Second Ave.  and Fourth Ave. The first business entries to go will be those lines up on Greene Street from Main Street to First Ave. and around to N Carroll Street. Please no lining up at the pool so that we can use that area for entries to unload after parade. 

Parade starts on the West end of Main Street and goes East to Tama. Heads South on Tama and then back west on Fourth Ave.
