A Century of Community Celebrations | Venice Beach News
Description
For nearly 100 years, the Fourth of July parade in Santa Clarita Valley has been a beloved community tradition, drawing up to 25,000 spectators and showcasing local pride through 110 parade units, from scouts to businesses. After decades of volunteer-led planning, the city is now stepping in to manage the massive event, especially as America gears up for its 250th birthday. The parade isn’t just about floats—it’s a living archive of local patriotism, with photos dating back to the 1920s preserved online. Meanwhile, the LA Public Library celebrates its own century with a staggering four million historic images, including vintage parade scenes, proving that American celebration runs deep across the region.
