Merrymount Association July 4 Parade

Let’s celebrate all we love about summers in Merrymount – the Beach, BBQs with neighbors, Association events, Flag Day, July 4th, Boating, etc.!

We want to stress how informal the parade is – you do not need a Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade float to enter – a car, boat, bikes, strollers, wagons, your own two feet, etc. are all encouraged! Multiple streets can join together to enter a “float.” Please talk to your neighbors about entering and let us know if you know of any other youth groups or organizations that might also want to participate.

Setup for the parade begins at 12PM at Merrymount Elementary School and the Parade steps off at 12:30 (half hour earlier!!) and concludes at Merrymount Beach by 1:30 (there will be no ceremony at the Beach this year afterwards).
Where: Merrymount Elementary School, Quincy, MA 02169
