Summerlin Sparks Fourth Of July Parade

Nearly 40,000 valley residents celebrated Independence Day at the 14th annual Summerlin Council Patriotic Parade, one of Las Vegas' largest Fourth of July parade. The record-setting crowd enjoyed more than 60 entries including traditional floats, giant helium balloons, bands and performing groups and children's favorite storybook characters.

KLAS Channel 8 TV personalities, Sherry Swensk and Dave Courvoisier, and Melanie and Michael in the Morning from Sunny 106.5 FM Radio were this year's parade emcees.
