The Ocean Grove Parade has been recognized by the Asbury Park Press as “one of the best parades in the Garden State.” The Star Ledger says the annual Independence Day parade “remains a civic extravaganza of fire trucks, marching bands and volunteer group floats. It has an official motto - “The Best Fourth of July parade in America” - and is the daytime star of the weekend. The evening star is the Great Auditorium concert.”
Strike Up The Band! At 7:30 PM in the Great Auditorium, “I Love New York Brass,” an all-star brass ensemble, will present a special Independence Day program featuring Americana, patriotic anthems, American songbook, gospel hymns and other celebratory music. “I Love New York Brass” features seven of the top musicians from the New York area, representing the NY Philharmonic, the MET Opera, the West Point Band, and Broadway: Philip Smith, Michael Baker, Michelle Baker, Paul Bellino, Jason Ham, Kyle Turner, and Bob Jones.
