On Monday, July 4, 2016 the LAX Coastal Chamber of Commerce will present our community’s version of a Norman Rockwell painting—our tribute to America’s birthday. Each year, neighbors come together in a sea of red, white and blue to express their pride in country and community. This year’s parade, "Our Little Piece of Paradise - Celebrating 75 Years of Westchester" is the kickoff event of a yearlong birthday party for our town. Over 50 entries will be participating in this year’s parade. From the Westchester Family YMCA to the Charro Horses, from the spectacular Westchester Lutheran float to the Fire Station #5 Hook and Ladder, this year’s parade is sure to make you fall in love with our small town in a big city. This Independence Day, please join us at this heartwarming community event. For more information go to www.laxcoastal.com or call 310.645.5151.
