Appleton is fond of parades and especially fond of the American flag, where the red, white and blue is proudly displayed by Appleton's citizens. Flag Day, of course, is one of those events where we are glad to have a parade to remind us of our heritage. Here are a few scenes from Appleton's Flag Day Parade held on June 12, 2004.

My son was part of the Patriot Band. He's at the front of this shot. Believe me, wearing those feathers on his head was not his choice.
