Celebrating Independence Day with Community Spirit
at the Sunland-Tujunga 4th of July Parade
This year’s Sunland-Tujunga 4th of July Parade was a memorable event for our community and for Alex Balekian. The parade, a beloved tradition in the area, was a wonderful opportunity for Alex to connect with residents, celebrate our nation’s independence, and share his vision for the future of California’s 30th Congressional District.
Starting at 10 a.m. from Mt. Gleason & Foothill Boulevard, the parade route stretched 1.2 miles down Foothill Blvd, ending at Sunland Park. The atmosphere was vibrant, filled with patriotic spirit as families, friends, and neighbors lined the streets, waving flags and cheering.
Alex, joined by his campaign team and supporters, proudly participated in the parade, dressed in red, white, and blue. The energy was contagious as he interacted with the crowd, exchanged smiles and greetings, and took the time to listen to the concerns and hopes of the community.
In his own words, Alex expressed his gratitude and excitement about the event:
"It was an honor to be part of the Sunland-Tujunga 4th of July Parade. Seeing so many smiling faces and feeling the community's warmth - and water balloons - reinforced my commitment to serving the residents of this district. I look forward to working hard in Congress to address the issues that matter most to you all."
The parade wasn’t just about celebration; it was a demonstration of the community’s strength and unity. It provided a platform for Alex to highlight his dedication to the district and his readiness to tackle challenges head-on. Engaging with residents in such a lively and direct manner allowed Alex to further understand the unique needs of the community, reinforcing his pledge to be a representative who listens and acts.
Throughout the parade, the sense of togetherness was palpable. Alex's participation underscored his belief in the power of community engagement and his commitment to being an accessible and responsive leader. The day was filled with meaningful interactions, joyous celebrations, and a shared sense of pride in our nation and our community.
