[Neighbors] 4th of July parade

[Ashli Hickman]

We witnessed the last parade the year we moved into LJE.  Must have been the summer of 2015 because my now 9 year old son was a baby.  I think it could be fun to have kids participate in the parade somehow; decorate their bikes and ride the route maybe?  I love that this is coming back together!  I’m definitely not in a place to take on a major role here, but I’d be happy to contribute somehow to bringing this tradition back!

>>> I was thinking we could start a parade maybe at the top of Les Jardin- at the intersection of Reumur and LJ? TBD. And then end in one of the cul-du-sacs where we could have a bounce house and maybe games (cake walk?) and grill burgers and hotdogs- nothing fancy. Truly pulling from childhood memories and not a previous iteration of what the neighborhood used to do.

I know it seems early, but summer will be here before we know it and since I've never done anything like this... starting early seems wise. Would anyone like to join me in getting this going?? Particularly you cul-de-sac neighbors- it would be ideal to end the parade in one of the circles and do a little block party. thoughts?
