The Village of Romeoville will hold an essential workers parade on Saturday, July 18. The staging ground will be at White Oak Library. Things will kick off at 1:00 p.m. and follow the route indicated on the map below, ending at Boucher Prairie Park.

"We wanted to give the community a chance to thank the supporting agencies and employees of the village who have kept Romeoville running through the pandemic," explained Mayor John Noak.

Spectators will see representatives from most village departments, as well as CITGO, Lockport Fire Protection, and other agencies. The village asks that those watching the parade social distance to keep this a fun and safe event. Additionally, candy and other items will not be thrown from vehicles.
