The 4th of July Parade, as captured by Dave Chase of the Milford Historical Society
Setting up the parade position markers early that morning
The Saxhorn band entertains the crowd before the parade
Descendants of Milford’s founders on the special wagon for them in the parade. It was pulled by a team of Clydesdales
Bill Crawford, himself a descendant of the original settlers drove a tractor pulling another wagon for descendants
Of course there were bands
And floats of all types and sizes.
Milford’s Citizen of the Year was honored
And groups from all over came out to march
And you can’t have a parade without horses
Most groups and floats threw candy out for the kids in the crowd, even the local politicians
There were tractors and decorated bicycles and lots of antique cars and more bands
There were cheer leaders and churches and all had a generally good time.
