My name is Dan, co-chairman Citizens Fourth of July Parade Committee, and I would like to take this opportunity to say I am sorry for the disruption during our parade.
I didn't hear anything until the parade was almost over about the un-American characteristics displayed when a group of masked people jumped into line and walked with the parade. I can only hope the citizens made their stay short-lived.
I just wanted to let everyone know the parade will always be fun for everyone and never allow something like this to happen if possible. We are just a group of citizens doing something good for our community. Our committee had no knowledge or association with this group of people.
Protesters like them have no place in our parade.
Thank you and see you next year.
