Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day Parade and Celebration 2025

We will need assistance is in the food service tent. The line tends to get backed up so we are hoping to combat that with extra hands on deck to help with food prep and serving. We will be grilling hamburgers and hot dogs and will be giving out chips and drinks to go with them.
