  • fishing in pristine Canadice Lake

    WhatTown of Irondequoit 4th of July Parade
    WhenSaturday July 4th
    Please arrive for the parade line-up by 10:00 a.m.
    Parade begins at 11:00 am
    WhereParade route is down Titus Ave., between Hudson Ave. and Kings Hwy.
    Since Titus Ave. closes for the parade, it is suggested to travel Seneca Ave. to Titus Ave to group.

     

    For those of you who have never attended the Town of Irondequoit 4th of July Parade, here is what we do. You and your VW will drive down the parade route (about 30 minutes) while adoring viewers wave and give you the thumbs-up. They love to receive a wave and horn beep back! We also decorate our cars with U.S. flags and other red, white and blue decorations. It is a nice experience being part of such a large, popular parade and we have been invited back every year since the early 1990’s. We usually have 8-12 cars participate, but it would be wonderful to see an even larger group of VW’s rolling down Titus Avenue!
