We had a wonderful morning celebrating community at the
Park Ridge Memorial Day Parade as we honored those who made the ultimate sacrifice and came together as a city.
Thank you to everyone who cheered on the Park Ridge Chamber of Commerce along the route... we loved seeing so many
familiar faces!
A special thank you to Immediate Past Board President Jerry Kowalczyk for riding along with us and to Board President Nick Fallico for helping represent the Chamber in this year’s parade.
Thank you, Park Ridge, for another memorable parade!
