The Merrymount Association is excited to announce the return of the Junior Olympics on Saturday July 1 at 10AM at Merrymount Beach.

Meaghan and Taylor put a ton of time and energy into planning and organizing the Olympics, but they need help to set-up and man stations during the event.

​Kids must be supervised at the Beach for the event.

Merrymount Association July 4th Parade
Tuesday; July 4, 2023
12 PM

The July 4th Parade theme is ….. Summer Blockbusters!!

Check out this list for the top 25 all-time Summer Blockbusters - https://www.filmsite.org/summerblockbusters.html

Please register your float by July 2 so we can get $100 to your group for participating. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090D4CAAAA2CA0FD0-july2

We want to stress how informal the parade is - you do not need a Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade float to enter - a car, boat, bikes, strollers, wagons, your own two feet, 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 for the parade begins at 12PM at Merrymount Elementary School and the Parade steps off at 12:30 and concludes at Merrymount Beach by 1:30.

The parade route is as follows - Merrymount School on Agawam Rd., to Narragansett Rd., to Chickatabot Rd., to Norton Rd., to Sea St., to Samoset Rd. to Longwood Rd., to Moreland Rd., to Waban Rd., to Maypole Rd., to Squanto Rd., to Victoria Rd., and finally to Merrymount Beach.

If you live on this route - please do not park your car on the street during the parade!

​Please talk to neighbors and get signed up soon!
