The Patriot Guard Riders have been asked once again to lead the Independence Day Parade in Chappell Hill.  It is being billed as “The Largest Small Town Parade in Texas”.  This is what we call an “Open Invite”, so any and all motorcycles are welcome.  I will be leading the parade with my large flags mounted on the trike.  This will be the fourth year to lead this.  We posted this last year and did have a few CNS members join us.  If a passenger, you can throw candy to the hundreds of kids along the street.
