The Borough of Swarthmore and the Independence Day Committee have made the difficult decision to cancel the annual Fourth of July celebrations due to COVID-19 health and distancing concerns. Affected festivities include the Swarthmore Recreation Association’s bike race and horseshoe tournament, the community parade, the Lions Club parade, the Community Award Ceremony, and the Swarthmore Fire and Protective Association events. But we have photos and a video from last year’s celebration to tide you over until 2021.
It was a fantastic day of celebration across Swarthmore and surrounding communities, featuring awards, parades, races, swimming, music, and lots more. The Swarthmorean has the recap, including a slideshow capturing moments from Swarthmore, Rose Valley, and Rutledge.
There’s a full roster of celebration in store for the Fourth in Swarthmore this year. Join in on the annual SRA bike race, the children’s parade, the Boy Scout and community group parade, the fire company demonstration and much more!
