📣📣📣 4TH OF JULY PARADE DETAILS ARE HERE!
The Dieterich 4th of July Parade will kick off at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, July 4th. The theme for this year's parade is "Cheers to 250 Years!".

Participants need to line up at the Dieterich High School parking lot starting at 10:00 a.m. There is no pre-registration required and no fee to enter the parade. We do kindly request that no water balloons be thrown during the parade by participants or spectators.

***New for 2026*** Parade participants that have more than one vehicle for their entry, you MUST have all vehicles present when you arrive for line up. It is not possible to add late arrival vehicles to the parade line up.

The parade marshal will be Tom Wright who is the 2026 Effingham County Citizen of the Year.

We appreciate the Dieterich Fire Protection District volunteers managing participant line up and parade detail, as they do every year. This parade could not happen without them!
