The 23rd annual Lake Whatcom boat parade will take place on the Fourth of July.
The parade begins at 3 p.m. with the firing of a Civil War-era cannon. As many as 36 boats, including wooden classics, steam engine and ski boats, will participate. It begins at Strawberry Point and will follow the shoreline clockwise for about 90 minutes.
A few great spots to watch from are the dock area of Bloedel Donovan Park, the end of Cable Street and other street ends off North Shore Drive.
I've never seen it before but it sounds like something I will try and do this year.
