The Montreat Fourth of July Parade: A community celebration open to the public. The parade begins at 10:30 a.m. on Lookout Road and comes down to Assembly Drive and around Lake Susan and consists of creative and unusual floats created by both families and businesses. Spectators line up along the streets with chairs, picnics and blankets. The parade ends at Anderson Auditorium where a flag-raising ceremony takes place.
The fun continues throughout the day at Montreat—the tennis courts, boats and pools are free and open to the public all day. A BBQ picnic takes places at noon, an old-timers softball game at 2 p.m. and a barn dance at 7:30 p.m. So bring your picnics, blankets and chairs and enjoy this one-of-a-kind Fourth of July celebration. For more information, call the Montreat Conference Center at 828-669-2911.
