American flags, fireworks, barbeques and, of course, parades! These are all staples of the great American holiday. Polk County GOP needs all the walkers we can recruit to join us for two high-profile parades.

Friday, July 3rd – West Des Moines

Thousands of opportunities to show parade watchers we are proud of our founders, our country and our party.

Line up is at Valley High School and the parade route ends at Valley Junction.  Please be at the high school by 6:15p.  This is a large parade so we need to have everybody in place by the parade start time of 6:30p.

And don’t worry about the length of the parade.  We have that covered, too!  There is room for several people to ride on the float trailer so we can each take a break.  Water for essential (and required!) hydration will also be provided by Polk County GOP.

Saturday, July 4th – Urbandale

Kick off Independence Day meeting crowds of citizens who are just there to celebrate the very freedom the Polk GOP is promoting. There will be plenty of time for you to enjoy a picnic or BBQ after the parade.

Parade time is 10:00a so please be at the Old City Hall not later than 9:50a.  The Old City Hall in Urbandale is located at 3315 70th Street.

For more information on either of these parades, please call Lynn McRoberts at 913-226-9143 or email at lmmcroberts@gmail.com.
