Crescent City and Del Norte County celebrated America’s 248th birthday with a monumental Parade, July 4th.

Crescent City Police Chief Richard Griffin remarked, “ This year’s Parade was the largest I’ve seen since becoming Chief.” An estimated 5,000 plus lined the Parade route on H, 3rd, K and Front Streets, six to seven deep, according to Griffin.

Magnificent Summer weather, no fog cover to speak of, allowed for a spectacular Fireworks Show later that evening. Here are the float award winners:

• Best in Creativity, Tolowa Dee-ni’

• Best in Entertainment, Get Right Fitness

• Best co-Crowd Pleaser, Crescent City Marching Band

• Best co-Crowd Pleaser, Redwood Happiness Initiative

• Best in Theme, Elk Valley Casino
