Theme: Stars, Stripes, and A Parade!

Celebrate 50 & 250 Years at the Penngrove Parade
It's as small-town America as you can get. You’ll see tractors, horses, floats, antique military Jeeps, bands, and bicycle teams. And, it's blissfully under one hour!

The menu offers old-fashioned pit beef, BBQ chicken, beef sandwiches, oysters, and hot dogs. Drinks and Lagunitas beer will keep you cool. You’ll want to visit the Penngrove 4-H dessert and cold soda booth. Purchase barbecue tickets at the door.

Grand Marshal Ray Soper will lead the parade in an historic 1936 Indiana fire engine. Soper has been involved with Penngrove Social Firemen for decades and is a past president.
​
Know Before You Go: Sorry, no dogs, coolers, outside food or drink in the park. No digital ID will be accepted. Bring cash or use the on-site ATM.

Roads close 10:00 am.
