Everybody Loves a Parade!

/ hometownfestival

The Hometown Festival parade is one of the highlights of spring in Round Hill!

This year the parade will kickoff at 10 a.m. — that’s a little later than last year and has been changed to give more buffer time between the 5k and the parade lineup, which will begin at 9 a.m.

The parade route starts in Mountain Valley and heads south through Hillwood Estates before turning on to Main Street and ending on East Loudoun Street in front of the Town Park, where spectators and participants are encouraged to stay for the Memorial Ceremony that follows the parade as well as a full day of free family-friendly fun!

Local businesses and organizations are invited to participate! Register online at https://tinyurl.com/RHParade2025.

2025 T-shirt Design Contest Underway

/ hometownfestival

Calling all elementary school artists in the 20141! Submit your artwork for this year’s Hometown Festival T-shirt and have a chance not only to have your design featured on our Festival shirts, but also to ride in a Round Hill Volunteer Fire and Rescue truck in this year’s Festival parade!

Details of how to submit your artwork can be found here! All artwork is due to either Mrs. Fink at Round Hill Elementary School or to the Round Hill Town Office by Thursday, April 4.

This year we are celebrating Round Hill’s 125th birthday, so designs may incorporate that theme and/or our traditional patriotic themes. Please limit designs to no more than three colors and use markers (not crayons) since they reproduce better.

Good luck! We can’t wait to see what you come up with!
