Flag Day Parade recap


It was a gorgeous day for a parade! Over 60,000 people attended the annual Flag Day Parade Saturday, June 9, in Appleton. It's billed as the largest flag day parade in the nation, although Troy, New York claims that honor also. Reminds me of the Nation's first indoor mall battle between Valley Fair Mall, Appleton, and Southdale Center, Edina, MN!

Grand Chute was well represented with town officials walking the parade route, the Grand Chute Lion's Club participating, and the Grand Chute Fire Department/Fire Explorers showing off their brand new fire engine.
