Celebration Clarkdale hosts an annual 4th of July celebration and children's parade. The festivities begin with a pancake breakfast sponsored by the Clarkdale Police Department and Clarkdale Fire Department. They decorate their bikes, wagons and sometimes their pets, to win a prize. After the parade, the band begins playing patriotic songs, while the kids enjoy games where everyone's a winner.
Booths offer cold drinks and hot food.
If the day gets too warm the Clarkdale Fire Department will cool you off with a spray of water. Kids can see fire trucks up close, and get a ride around the park. This family event has been taking place for over 30 years.
