This event is well worth the trouble of getting to our spot in the parade line-up! As one of our devoted volunteers says, “This is my chance to see the face of Lebanon.”
We walk the 2.5-mile parade route as part of Lebanon’s biggest yearly event. We hand out BLT event cards and get lots of love from the crowd!
Strollers, scooters, skates, bicycles, tricycles, and plain old walking shoes are welcome. However you roll, come and join us!
Here’s a map of how to get to the parade staging area in the Walmart parking lot. See the Driving Directions section for further instructions.
