Millville Cuts Parade Over Costs and Low Signups

Millville’s Fourth of July parade is canceled this year—no floats, no marching bands, no daytime spectacle—due to low volunteer turnout and soaring police costs for a town with too many intersections to cover. But don’t pack your bags: the evening fireworks and festivities are still on from 6 to 9 PM. One commissioner only learned of the cancellation the day before, scrambling to find ways to honor those who already invested in floats, urging them to contact Recreation for possible display options. Another commissioner apologized for the disruption and begged residents to still come out for the night’s celebration. And it’s not just Millville—Mount Holly canceled its entire Independence Day event over security concerns. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
