We’ve had three successful years of including Italian and Hill families in the Italian Heritage Parade. We’re hoping to grow the number of families in the Parade again this year.
The Parade and Festa will be on Sunday, October 13. The Parade starts at 12:30 at Shaw School, follows the traditional route and will end with the Festa at Berra Park.
The Italian Heritage Parade theme for 2024 remains Celebrating Our Italian Heritage for a Future Legacy. Your legacy is the name of the family who first came here, the family is the branch that’s representing the legacy. The Hill community’s bedrock is familial connections, and the conversation is ongoing. Some families have taken the opportunity of the parade to have an extended family reunion. Judging by their floats, they’ve been having a grand time!
For a small entry fee, you will get two large vinyl banners for your car or golf cart (which you keep). Or if you wish for your family to show up in force, you’ll have two banners to carry as you walk the route. Get creative and show us who you are, or just join in the fun!
If you participated in previous years, come back! Display your banner and grow your numbers. Please fill out the form to let us know you’re coming.
In one way or another, we all share in this wonderful community. Join the parade and get to know your Hill neighbors.

The deadline to submit this form is Monday, October 1st, 2024.
