Free fireworks displays abound in South Jersey, and though Moorestown doesn’t have its own, it still celebrates our country’s independence with a 4th of July Parade.
The 2015 parade will step off at noon, heading up Chester Avenue, turning right on East Main Street to Church Street where it officially ends.
Families are welcome to participate with their decorated bikes, scooters and wagons. Veterans and all of Moorestown’s civic organizations are encouraged to also participate in the parade.
