HANOVER, MI -- Folks began lining up Hanover’s Main Street hours before the start of the annual Fourth of July Parade. Along the street people roamed the nearby food carts, conversing with their neighbors, or just enjoying the sunshine.

Hanover once again hosted their Fourth of July Parade in 2022, hosting local police and fire departments, new semi trucks and tractors, as well as locals on floats, bike, and even horse.

Organizers Jenny Crews and Tina Stuart called the parade “a great day for the community to come together to celebrate each other and America’s independence.” Crews has been organizing the parade for 21 of its 25 years, helping to coordinate vendors and arranging each group set to partake in the parade.
