4th of July in Pequot Lakes

Pequot Lakes will blossom with 10 to 12 thousand happy 4th of July revelers today and Saturday. Chamber spokesperson Sue Galligan tells KLKS News, Saturday's events begin with a fireman's pancake breakfast at the fire hall. She says the big parade kicks-off at 11 a.m. with some 75 units pleasing the spectators.

Galligan says there will be no parking allowed on the parade route Saturday. There will be ample parking in the High School parking lot on the west side of Highway 371.
Friday has lots of events too, with a carnival on the high school grounds, and food vendors at the trailside park.
The fireworks will be staged at the high school football field at dusk tonight.
