“To our knowledge the tradition of the Fourth of July Parade in Waukesha dates back to at least 1871,” said Parks, Recreation & Forestry Director Ron Grall. “The pride, history and sense of community exhibited by the citizens of Waukesha and our visitors are apparent in their participation of Fourth of July activities and I’m sure this year will be no exception. We invite the entire community to enjoy all the Waukesha parks have to offer and join in the festivities.”
