Sound View Celebrates ‘The Fourth’ in Traditional Style
OLD LYME—It was a beautiful day for a parade and yet again, Sound View put its best foot forward with a wonderful one. The crowds came out to join the celebration featuring decorated bikes, a cheery band, esteemed veterans, local dignitaries and much more. Awards were presented in categories including best-decorated bike or wagon, most patriotic outfit, best float, and funniest outfit.
The Sound View Beach Association (SVBA) hosts the parade. It is an all- volunteer, non-profit, civic organization, which owns and manages the Shoreline Community Center and also provides the flags in the Sound View area.
Everyone is invited to join or help. The SVBA welcomes new members, volunteers and donations—all donations are tax deductible and the SVBA is registered for “matching gift” grants with many companies.
