The Port Huron Rotary Club has announced its eagerly anticipated plans for the 104th Rotary International Day Parade, slated for July 17th, at 6:30 p.m. This long standing tradition, older than both the Detroit and New York Thanksgiving Day parades, promises to be a spectacle of community spirit and celebration.
Themed “All Hands On Deck – A Century of Sailing,” this year’s parade commemorates the 100th running of the Bayview Yacht Club Port Huron-to-Mackinac sailboat race. Leading the procession as Grand Marshals are Casey and Carrie Harris.
Interested participants can register at phrotary.com or paradeday.net. The parade will follow its traditional route, commencing at Huron and Glenwood Avenues in downtown Port Huron and concluding at Court St., albeit on a slightly shorter route compared to previous years.
