Glenview 4th of July Planning Underway

In response to the coronavirus pandemic in 2020 , the Glenview Park District held a “ reverse ” parade . Residents obtained timed tickets to drive through Community Park West to see stationary “ floats ” set up by community groups from the safety of their cars . In lieu of fireworks , local churches and residents shared a community-wide bell ringing in honor of the holiday at 8 pm .
The Glenview Park Board and Village of Glenview have approved plans to hold a “ reverse ” parade again in 2021 . No decision has been made at this time related to the fireworks . The Glenview 4th of July Committee has decided they will not be fundraising due to the uncertainty related to July 4th events .
