FRIDAY, JULY 4th

4th of July Parade

We are thrilled to announce the Grand Marshall of the Fourth of July Parade will be…CINDY WILLIS!

Cindy Willis volunteers her time and works tirelessly to maintain the Lending Library. Even when faced with mounds of donated books, she works diligently with a smile on her face. We are so appreciative of her meticulous organization of the library and her positive attitude. We are so excited to have Cindy as the Grand Marshall of the Fourth of July Parade!

Get to know Cindy Willis:
Lived on Seabrook Island: Since 2000, so 25 years!
Favorite Weekly Activity on Seabrook Island: Working in the library!
Favorite Seabrook Island Event: I like the community, the residence, and the climate. I like everything about Seabrook; there are no favorite events!
-Best Advice for the Next Generation: Just sit back and enjoy Seabrook. Don’t try to change it, just enjoy it!

The Seabrook Island July 4th Parade is a long-standing tradition. Each year, both the number of parade participants and spectators increase to keep our tradition fun for all. We have many young children (youth and preteens) on bicycles leading the parade, as well as an increasing number of LSVs full of families with young children celebrating July 4th.

  • The parade lineup will have a Dry Section at the beginning. All parade participants who would like to be dry will comprise the first part of the parade.
  • The Johns Island fire engine signals the end of the dry section and the beginning of the Water Party.
  • All parade participants who want to be part of the Water Party will follow the fire engine.

There will be 2 sections for vehicles: Dry & Wet. Staff will be on hand to assist with both the Dry and Wet section lineups. All parade participants must be at their lineup location by 9:00am.

  • DRY SECTION: Lineup will be at the Lake House Front Lawn.
  • WET SECTION: Lineup will be in the Seabrook Island Village area.

*Registration Deadline is Tuesday, July 1st at noon.
**Please note, delays can be expected during Seabrook Island’s Fourth of July Parade on Friday, July 4th from 9:00am – 10:30am.

NEW THIS YEAR – A DRY VIEWING AREA!
The Dry Viewing section will be located in the grassy area near the volleyball net on the Lake House Front Lawn for the spectators that prefer to remain dry. Please remember to bring your lawn chairs/blankets and be seated by 8:45am to see all the Fourth of July Parade fun!
