One of the official signs of summer in Oswego is the Independence Celebration, which will be held on July 6, beginning with the 51st Annual Independence Parade at 1:00 p.m.
The starting location will remain the same with the parade beginning at Oswego High School on Liberty St. and will end on East Seventh Street at the tunnel leading into Fort Ontario. There will be over 40 participants in the parade including 6 bands. The viewing stand for the Parade will be located at West Second Street.
The concert that evening at Breitbeck Park will begin with Oswego High School Jazz Band at 6:30 p.m., followed by the Oswego City Band. This is made possible through the generous support of NBT Bank. Food vendors will also be in the park. The evening concludes with a fireworks display over the Oswego Harbor beginning at dusk made possible with the support of the Port of Oswego.
