Mayor Sylvester Turner will host the 6th Annual Acres Homes Juneteenth Parade Saturday, June 17th.
“This is the biggest Juneteenth Parade we’ve ever had,” said Mayor Turner.  “I hope everyone in Acres Homes comes out to see their neighbors and friends.”
The Parade will take place beginning at 10 a.m.  It will start at the Acres Homes Multi-Service Center, 6719 W. Montgomery, head north on W. Montgomery, turn left on Dolly Wright and end at Greater Zion Missionary Baptist Church, 1620 Dolly Wright.   

West Montgomery will be closed along the route during the duration of the parade.
The parade will feature marching bands, dancers, schools, cars and motorcycles, floats, horses and more.   Larry Hale of KTSU Radio will announce each participant.
“We have over 90 entries in the Juneteenth Parade,” said Mayor Turner.  “Come out to hear the music, watch the drill teams, enjoy the many vehicles, both horse-powered and horse-drawn.  Come out and support our school kids and community groups and wave to your family and friends as they march by.”

We look forward in seeing you there!
