When you plan a parade, the worst fear is rain and thunderstorms.  All that stayed away from Fishers late Sunday afternoon and the 2016 Fishers Freedom Festival Parade started right on schedule.

There may have been no rain, but the heat hovered around the 90-degree mark during the event.  There were plenty of water bottles among the crowd looking on and for those in the parade.

Here are a few pictures from this year’s parade.
