Grab a seat on a chair, bench, or curb and watch the Grandpa Shorter’s Fourth of July Parade at 6PM! The parade steps off onto Kalamazoo Street, and then takes a left onto Mitchell Street, then makes a right on Petoskey Street for a block, and then turns right on Lake Street where it ends at Pennsylvania Park.Look for the award-winning Petoskey High School Marching Band, the Petoskey Steel Drum Band in their double decker performance trailer, Grandpa Shorter’s classic 1947 Dodge stake truck, named Ruthie, and lots of other fun entries. Try not to get sprayed with water from the fire trucks, and cover your ears for the horn blasts from the line-up of big trucks!
We suggest the best parade watching happens on our corner of Lake Street, and we provide entertainment while waiting for the parade to begin. If you have kids, bring a bag or two for them to collect candy as many parade participants hand out goodies!
