We welcome you to participate in this celebrated annual event, from beauty queens to fire fighters, family reunions to local schools, boats and floats to just plain fun entries who line Main Street, Chester to celebrate the 4th of July! Our 2018 Parade theme is Carnival Madness. If you would like to have a float, group, or individual display in the parade, this is where you register. If you just want to come and watch, the parade starts at 11 am at the Collins Pine lawn on Main Street, Chester and ends at Melissa Road in Old Town Chester.
