City of Presidents

The Parade of Presidents. A bicentennial project in 1976 Commemorating our nation's 200th birthday.

Forty-four patriotic shields with each president's name, silhouette, term in office and birth state, still line the city's Main Street. Flags fly high over each shield from Memorial Day through Veteran's Day for everyone to enjoy.
