The annual Summer Frolic Parade is a celebration of community! Village residents and their guests line the streets as entries representing local organizations and businesses pass through downtown Mount Horeb on their way to the Frolic grounds.
The 2024 Summer Frolic Parade will begin Sunday, June 9, at noon. The route, which begins at Mount Horeb High School and ends on the Frolic grounds at Grundahl Park, runs from Eighth Street west down Garfield Street to south on First Street, then west on Henry Street, ending on the Frolic grounds at Grundahl Park.
Our announcers, Ellen and Peter Walton, will describe the various parade entries from a booth at the intersection of Garfield Street and Center Avenue, and provide tidbits of Frolic history.
