Updated Schedule for 4th of July Celebration

There are changes in the 4th of July celebration in Greendale this year.

• Participants in Greendale's upcoming 4th of July parade will not be lining up this year in the Southridge Mall parking lot as in years past. Parade participants should enter from either S 68th Street or westbound Grange Ave.  These lanes will be shut down to westbound traffic and motorists will be redirected prior to the line up. The line-up will begin at 9 a.m.

• This year the Public Celebrations Committee has separated the children’s unit from the regular parade to allow them to finish and watch the remainder of the parade.  The Children’s Parade will start at 9:45 AM. In the past, the Children's Parade has immediately preceded the main parade down Broad Street .
