10th Annual Kids’ 4th of July Parade & Camden Celebrates America’s 250th

The cutest parade in Kershaw County is getting a “sestercentennial-sized” glow up! Kids from all across Kershaw County are invited to show off their patriotic spirit, decorating bicycles, scooters, and wagons and wearing their red, white, and blue as we celebrate the 10th Annual Kids’ 4th of July Parade, in partnership with Books on Broad, AND America’s 250th Birthday!

Festivities begin at Camden City Hall at 9:30 am, short program begins at 10:15, and the parade starts at 10:30 am. This is a free event open to the community. For the safety of the participants, motorized vehicles (electric or gas powered) are not allowed, and children 10 and under must be escorted by an adult.

This year, the parade will march to Camden City Arena, 420 Broad Street, for a community-wide celebration of our nation’s independence, on the 250th anniversary. All our welcome, as you enjoy live music, free refreshments, and family fun – in partnership with community organizations such as the Camden Fire Department, Revolutionary War Visitor Center, Hobkirk Hill Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, Col. Joseph Kershaw Chapter of the South Carolina Society Sons of the American Revolution, and more. Free snow cones will be available to all participants following the parade.
