July 4th in Schroon. It’s not just the parade, but an all day extravaganza!

The main event, which attracts thousands — and gives dentists new clients from all of the free candy thrown throughout the parade — starts at 6pm.

But the day begins much earlier with a fun run  (9am) and the world famous Annual Chicken BBQ,  until sold out, proudly sponsored by the Schroon Lake Community Church.

“It’s going to one of our best years ever,” Nicole Howe, from the Schroon Lake Chamber told us today.

“For the first time we have the Schroon Lake Jazz band and the 5th and 6th grade soccer team.”

The fireworks are sceduled to start between 9.30 and 10pm.

Here is the official program from the Chmber:
