Bucky Badger Making Special Greenfield Parade Appearance

I'm elated! Absolutely thrilled!  Bucky Badger will be making a rare and special appearance at the 2012 Greenfield 4th of July Parade! 

"When word leaked out that Bucky Badger would be a parade highlight, I received six phone calls from businesses wanting to get in on the action and exposure," stated Parade Committee Chairperson, Dennis Ervin. "The business community response to the Parade and Celebration has been heartwarming and quite impressive."

The Greenfield 4th of July Parade will be the only parade in southeast Wisconsin to feature the University of Wisconsin Marching Band and Bucky Badger. The Independence Day activities are hosted by the Partners of Greenfield Park and Recreation.

Partners of Greenfield Park and Recreation are a nonprofit community support group run in conjunction with the Department of Parks and Recreation. Partners of Greenfield Park and Recreation assist the Department of Parks and Recreation in the beautification of green space, purchasing park amenities and development of park site activity areas for the benefit of the Greenfield community.

Partners of Greenfield Park and Recreation are a great avenue for individuals and organizations to make a positive difference in the promotion of public recreation in our city.

The Greenfield 4th of July Parade (12:15 p.m. start time) and Celebration will run from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Wednesday, July 4, 2012. The Parade and Celebration are free of charge.
