Summerlin Parade Celebrates 250th Birthday | Las Vegas News

The Summerlin Council Patriotic Parade returned with a bang, celebrating America’s 250th birthday with over 70 entries, 20 giant balloons, and 2,500+ marchers—all powered by hundreds of volunteers. Kickstarting at 9 AM and free for all, the event featured Colonel Trevor Merrell, commander of the 432nd Wing at Creech AFB, as Grand Marshal, symbolizing the strong community-military bond. Local media, including 8 News Now’s JC, Sherry Swensk, and Brian Loftus, brought the energy with their own classic 1966 Impala float. It was more than a parade—it was a vibrant, heartfelt gathering that united generations and reminded everyone why these traditions matter.
