The “By the People: Brattleboro Goes Fourth” citizens committee thanks everyone involved in the success of the town's 39th annual Independence Day celebration.
The all-volunteer group, working with the town Recreation & Parks Department, was able to present its parade downtown and free concerts and fireworks at Living Memorial Park only because of the generosity of countless individuals and companies that donated their time, money and talent, including:
- Grand Marshal Deirdre Baker, who has demonstrated not only how to overcome cancer while organizing the town's annual free Christmas breakfast but also how to defy the odds of meteorologists who forecast a day of severe thunderstorms.
- More than 50 other parade entries, including the Brattleboro American Legion and Brattleboro Union High School bands, veterans, firefighters, community and youth groups, and our perennial finale personality, Alfred Hughes Jr.
