FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION
Friday July 4, 2008
The Fourth of July celebration in Walker invokes feeling of nostalgia and patriotism from the midday parade to the late evening fireworks. The day begins with a "Kiddie Parade" allowing the children to demonstrate their achievements and excitement as they show their Scout uniforms, twirl their batons, or proudly display another skill. The Grand Marshall leads the rest of the parade through Main Street. It wouldn't be a Fourth of July parade though without the Veteran's floats, clowns, jugglers, homemade floats, antique cars, horses, fire trucks, and ambulances.
Festivities are continued throughout the day and into the evening in the Walker City Park. A Fish Fry, games, food, and local bands can all be found their leading up to the magnificent fireworks display. The fireworks are shot off over Leech Lake, which is filled with boats viewing the show.
You won't want to miss Fourth of July in Walker, Minnesota. Along with all of these activities, the town's shops and restaurants are all still open for business inviting people in to discover the treasures and delights that await them.
