Once a year towards the end of July the City of Renton takes a week to throw a big festival that celebrates our community. There are all kinds of activities during the week. Arts and crafts, food, live music, contests, treasure hunts, chalk art, and a rubber ducky derby. This was our 26th year. I love the Renton River Days Parade. It's a great reminder of how many wonderful people, businesses, and institutions we have here. It’s a time to have some good old fashioned small town Americana fun! It’s not a super polished professional contest oriented parade. It’s when we get together to celebrate our young and old (and everyone in between) who makeup our citizenry. I enjoy it all, and I especially look forward to watching all of the great kids we have in this city of ours who get involved ...
