The Island's smallest town started off the Island's belated Fourth of July festivities with the 11th annual Old South Road Children's Parade.

The festivities began with face painting. The parade started at 11 a.m., led by this year's grand marshal Buddy Vanderhoop. People all ages marched or rode along Old South Road.
