Highland Residents Set To Show Their Patriotism
Wednesday, 02 July 2008
By Alex Newsom
Herald intern
It's parade time.
For over more than 20 years, the Highland Parade has been something to look forward to during the week surrounding the Fourth of July.

The parade — slated Friday morning — is set to begin at the corner of Robb and Highland Drive and end at the corner of Goliad and Highland Drive. The parade is expected to last 30 to 40 minutes, and according to event organizers, draws approximately 75 participants.

According to Shayla Seymore, organizer for this year's parade, there will be entertainment, awards and cookies following the event. Center and Praise, a group from the First United Methodist Church, is slated to  perform, and awards will be given for classifications such as bicycles, walkers, strollers, motorized vehicles and four-wheelers.

Decorated mailboxes and yards will also be judged, with all participants in the parade receiving a ribbon.

When asked about the popularity of the Highland Parade, Seymore said it's a family affair that spans the generations.

“Some of the people even have family members come in from out of town for the parade,” said Seymore. “Several people have had their kids ride in the parade, and now they get to watch their grandchildren participate.”

Seymore said there's no admission fee or pre-registration required to take part in the parade, with participants expected to begin lining up around 9:15 a.m. and the festivities set to get under way at 10 a.m.

“I want to encourage everyone to bring their kids and enjoy the parade,” said Seymore.

For more information on the parade — or to make a monetary or cookie donation — contact Seymore at 267-4854 or Linda Stallings at 267-8427.
