Native Palisadian Steve Kerr, recently appointed Golden State Warriors coach, is the grand marshal of the 66th annual Pacific Palisades Fourth of July Parade.
Recently appointed Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr will be the grand marshal of the 66th annual Pacific Palisades Fourth of July Parade, which is set to begin at 2 p.m. on Sunset Boulevard, between Via de la Paz and Drummond Street.
Kerr was raised in Pacific Palisades and graduated from Palisades High School. His mother still lives in the community and annually hosts Fourth of July parties for visiting foreign exchange students, parade organizer Richard Wilken told City News Service.
The parade's theme is "Star-Spangled Palisades." Kim Traenkle, who submitted the winning entry, said it was inspired by her daughter Jacquie's learning the words to "The Star-Spangled Banner."
