Sarrie,
Sorry you didn't receive much help here. The 4th of July for decades consisted of only fireworks. A few years back a group of people decided to make it something special. The 4th of July parade was born!
Unfortunately for the whole city of Miles City, Gene Larson, one of the people who made this such a special day, is in hospice and no longer able to help. He used to do the postings on here about what was happening, reminding people of deadlines for entries, etc.
I know it would make Gene happy to know that new people like you are stepping forward and asking how to be involved. Here is the link to the Miles City Chamber Facebook page. You might like their page as they post local activities.
