The annual South Ardmore Independence Day celebration will take place on Saturday, July 4th. Bring your children, nieces, nephews, grand kids, and of course, your neighbors. Our event begins with a parade of bikes, strollers and wagons decorated in red, white and blue. We will depart from Chestnutwold Elementary at 10:00am, led by fire trucks from the Merion and Oakmont Fire Companies. From the school we will proceed up Belmont Avenue, turning right on Pont Reading and then left on Morris, before continuing to Elwell Field at the intersection of Ardmore and Morris Avenues. There, kids can participate in field events, compete in the “best- decorated” contest, get temporary tattoos, and do craft projects. If you’re hot, get under the Big Splash! If you’re hungry, hot dogs, pretzels, water ice, baked goods, and cold drinks will be available for purchase. There is no rain date for this event. If the weather is questionable, please check our website or Facebook page to verify whether we will proceed.
We need volunteers on the day of the event! If you plan to attend, please consider helping out in any way you can: set up, lend a pop-up tent, donate some cupcakes, work the food table or sell tickets for a half hour. To volunteer for a particular task, sign up online:
