Photos/videos from Eastwood’s Independence Day Parade
A colorful crowd gathered on Saturday June 29 for the Eastwood Neighborhood Association annual Independence Day Parade & Picnic! We had parade walkers and rollers, with many patriotically decorated strollers, kick scooters, and more. Everyone enjoy the shorter parade route — so much easier on the young kids. Many thanks to Darrell Wood for arranging the police and fire escort.
Back at Playground Park for the picnic party, kids had a great time on the big inflatable double water slide. Everyone enjoyed David Cunningham’s grilled hotdogs and tofu pups. Plentiful snacks, cold beverages, sliced watermelon. Many thanks to Eastwood’s fabulous social chair, Sarah Hamilton.
Spirits were high as Eastwooders gathered for the parade. Kids were delighted with the firetruck.
Eastwood appreciates our Volunteers in Patrol who kept the streets safe and traffic free for the parade.
Led by the firetruck, the parade was off down Sylvania to Vinemont, then Overglen to Creekmere.
Back at Playground Park, parade goers gathered for fabulous fun.
The water slide was non-stop action

We all had so much fun — see you next year!
