2021 Theme: "Heroes Among Us"

The 2021 Parade Theme is “Heroes Among Us!”  

This year we wanted to recognize and honor the many frontline workers who have worked, and continue to work, tireless hours battling the life-changing coronavirus pandemic.  They include doctors, nurses, and hospital staff, grocery store workers, restaurant staff, teachers, nursing home staff, therapists, utility workers, policemen, firemen, EMTs, military personnel, scientists and researchers, janitors, sanitation workers, bus drivers, truck drivers, pilots, mailmen, parcel delivery drivers, government officials, and clergy members - to name only a few. These individuals contribute in so many ways to the wellbeing of our community and Nation and have demonstrated incredible commitment and dedication throughout the pandemic.

Many of our Heroes serve quietly and selflessly, every day, without any expectation of special acknowledgement:  Let’s all say THANK YOU to those ‘Heroes Among Us’ who have done their utmost to ensure we stay safe, our Nation and our community stay strong, and we all can look forward to a brighter future!
