Ridgewood NJ, Ridgewood residents have a tradition of their own, they start setting out chairs along the Fourth of July Parade route on North Maple Avenue as early as this weekend.
The placing of chairs along the parade route is a village tradition dating back over 50 years. While we do get complainers generally is a lot of fun and often a bit competitive over spots .
The Police leave the chairs alone and some people tie up their , to keep them together and from blowing out into the street.
Normally by July 3, most of the parade route for this year’s the 107th annual Ridgewood Fourth of July Parade will be lined from beginning to end with chairs.
The parade starts at 10 a.m. July 4, and the theme of the 2017 Fourth of July Celebration is “Honoring Those Who Serve.”
the lining up of the chairs is a great tradition and the Fourth of July committee does a great job. Thank you for all the time and energy you put into making this a great holiday.
I have often had to swerve my car around chairs placed in advance and blown into the street. Lawn chairs are very light by design. Relatively few are tied up and even they aren’t always tied well. How many will end up in the street during Saturday’s predicted thunderstorms?
Lets fine the residents for unattended property in a public space.
or maybe littering or abandonment
Hey, how about fines for negatively impacting open space or actions deemed environmentally deleterious.
Or maybe arrest them for negatively impacting public safe spaces
456… agree… the town’ll make a bundle
