Merrymount Association July 4th Parade
Wednesday, July 4
12:30 PM - 2 PM
Thank you to all who voted for this year's July 4th Parade theme. We're excited to announce the winner:
Merrymount's Got Game!
Pick your favorite sport game, video game, board game, game show, childhood game, etc and start planning your float!
For streets registered by June 30, the Association will provide $30 per group to help with costs for your "float," costumes, props, etc. We want to stress how informal the parade is - you do not need a Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade float to enter - a car, bikes, strollers, wagons, etc. are all encouraged! Multiple streets can join together to enter a float. Please talk to your neighbors about entering and let us know if you know of any other youth groups or organizations that might also want to participate.
Setup begins at 12:30PM at Merrymount Elementary School and the Parade steps off at 1:00PM and concludes as Merrymount Beach by 2:00PM.
Register by emailing merrymountquincyboard@gmail.com and providing an address.

Dear Merrymount Residents,
It’s that time of year again – membership drive! For over 90 years, the Merrymount Association has worked to provide a wide range of activities for our neighborhood and offer a unified voice for positive improvements. The efforts of the Association members have influenced community development, neighborhood pride, improved the environment, and contributed to the education of our children through scholarships and civic events. We couldn’t do this without your support and membership participation, so please renew your membership today.
For 2018, we look forward to welcoming new neighbors to Merrymount and adding to the strong core of the Association, which consisted of over 350 households in 2017. With your membership dues, we are able to maintain and improve the beach facilities as well as plan exciting and fun events, for neighbors young and old.
We have an exciting list of activities planned for 2018. We are all hoping for warm and sunny weather for our annual Easter Egg hunt at the beach on Saturday March 30. In May, we host our annual Cleaner Greener beach cleanup on Saturday May 5, volunteers always needed, especially this year as we are hoping to add some new plantings to the beach property on that date. June brings the Summer Kickoff Party on Saturday June 2 with live music and food trucks at the beach as well as the annual Flea Market on June 9th.
July is always a great month in Merrymount with the annual July 3rd beach celebration and the July 4th parade. We hope to announce this year’s parade theme soon – please let us know if you have any suggestions. We will again host the very popular Summer Jazz Brunch on Sunday July 29th.
September and October bring great annual events such as the duck race, movie night, and campout, horseshoe tournament, Oktoberfest, a Halloween kids party and the New England Patriots tailgate with a huge inflatable screen in November. To finish the year, we will hold the annual Turkey Trot race Thanksgiving morning, an Ugly Sweater party, and the incredibly popular holiday horse-drawn “sleigh” ride in early December.
Over the past three years, we have added numerous new events for Association members and have completed significant improvements to the beach property including an all new fence, new picnic tables, and a freshly painted Shack. We hope to continue organizing these popular events and to further improve the beach property after the powerful winter storms of the past two months with new landscaping and other grounds improvements in 2018.
To stay up-to-date with activities, please visit www.merrymountquincy.com and sign up for the email distribution list on the “Contact Us” page. You can also follow the Association on Twitter at https://twitter.com/merrymountassoc or on Facebook at the “Merrymount Association Official” page. To volunteer for an event or to suggest and assist with a new event, fundraiser, or improvement, please email us directly at merrymountquincyboard@gmail.com or use the “Contact Us” form on the Merrymount Website. We need volunteers to keep the Association and its events running!
All the best,
Mark Sauter and the entire Association Board
