Be part of the Hamilton July 4^th parade this year and help celebrate the exact centennial of local star Hooks Wiltse’s historic extra-inning no-hit game!! This year’s theme is Baseball: Our National Pastime.

Please make every effort to make your parade entry have a baseball theme, and if possible, feature Hooks Wiltse.  Click here for more about the history of Hooks Wiltse.
