Fourth of July Parade – Glen Arbor

The Independence

Day parade in Glen Arbor is a great small-town event for spectators and participants alike. The parade rolls/walks/bikes into Glen Arbor from Glen Haven around noon (grab a seat along the main drag either on M22 or M109). For those with more ambition than catching a few pieces of candy, all that is required to be in the parade is a little creativity and some red white and blue (no entry forms or fees required). The entrants line up at Glen Haven starting at 11:00 a.m. If your preferred role is spectator, be sure to bring your best catching mitt. This year’s “floats” were not only tossing candy, to the delight of the children, but magazines, hot dogs, dental floss, and even toilet paper rolls courtesy of local Decker’s Pumping Service who had their pumping truck pulling up the rear of the parade.
