This year’s Lutheran Health Network Three Rivers Festival opening day parade is sure to thrill and excite children of all ages as we celebrate with this year’s theme: Superheroes! From Batman to Iron Man to the everyday superheroes that surround us in our community, let’s celebrate those that use their power for good!

"This year’s theme was chosen to bring our community together to celebrate the courage, strength and hope that superheroes represent," said Jack Hammer, Executive Director. "I can think of no better way to create great memories for the children and adults of our community."

Stipends will continue to be offered thanks to Sweetwater Sound Inc. to encourage first-time float building and to help fund local high school marching bands.

Applications and a complete set of rules for the Lutheran Health Network Three Rivers Festival Parade and the Sweetwater Sound Inc. stipend program will be available on the Three Rivers Festival website, info. Applications must be submitted by April 30, 2017.

Don’t miss the opportunity to be a part of this fun Fort Wayne tradition!
