Why aren't we doing water in the 4th of July Parade anymore?

     This is one of the more common questions we get as we approach Independece Day.  Over the years the Foresthill Fire Volunteer Firefighters Association has organized the parade here in Foresthill.  For years one of the biggest attractions has been the water zone, a water fight between parade participants and viewers.  While this traditionally has been a fun and family friendly event, problems have cropped up in the last few years that have made the organizers re-think this portion of the event. 

     Because of issues with overly enthusiastic participants in the water fight and problems with frozen water balloons the organizers of the event have discontinued the water fight.  We apologise to the our parade go-ers, but as a family event we will take no chances with attendee safety.
