Truckee 4th of July Parade 10 AM-12:30 PM.  The parade starts close to the high school and ventures down to Old Town. The Truckee flare in this parade makes it a stand out in my eyes! My favorite: the Truckee River Drill Team (envision an army drill team with skis rather than rifles and Hawaiian shirts rather than uniforms) Truckee 4th of July Parade Info
