Happy 4th of July everyone! We hope everyone has a safe and wonderful holiday!

⚠️🚨REMINDER🚨⚠️

The July 4th parade begins today at 11am. Parade lineup begins at 9am in the high school parking lot. If you're traveling on Cherry Street, please be patient, as there may be some traffic delays while floats enter the parking lot.

During the parade, please watch for officers and road closure signs- traffic will be detoured and stopped at times. Pedestrian traffic will also be high before and after the parade.

The festival continues after the parade downtown until 6pm, so the road closures in the center in town will remain until after the festival concludes.

We ask that you please plan ahead if you are going to be traveling to or through Blanchester today- take your time, be alert, drive safe, and be patient. Most of all, have a great time at the parade and festival!
