Join us for the 74th Annual Frances McGahee Youth Day Celebration!

Our incredibly creative team of volunteers has spent the last two weeks putting together a truly amazing float—I can’t wait to share it with you! And if you and your kids want to join us—riding on the float or walking alongside—I hope you’ll join us!

Youth Day Parade

The parade start and line-up area is at Roswell Area Park, off of Woodstock Road, at 8:00am. Please wear comfortable shoes, bring water, hat, sunscreen and bags for collecting candy.

Parking and drop-off will be available for parade participants only. There will not be a shuttle at the end of the parade.
