While I enjoyed Sunday’s July 4 events at Grant Park, it left me wondering: Should South Milwaukee have a July 4 parade?
Most other communities _ including Cudahy, St. Francis and Oak Creek — have parades on July 4, and they are wonderful celebrations of those communities.
That said, we also have the Heritage Days parade later in July, a great celebration in its own right.

I vote No 4th of July event!
SM has the Heritage Days Parade two weeks following. Our city just doesn’t have the volunteer base to run two events so close together.
I tend to agree. Heritage Days is great event, and we certainly couldn’t do two parades.
