We are proud to announce some of the esteemed participants in the 2022 Chatham July 4th Parade:
GRAND MARSHAL
The Grand Marshal for the 2022 parade will be Tommy Doane.
This year’s Grand Marshal truly embodies the spirit of a “Salty Chathamite”. Tommy has deep family roots in Chatham and does many things for the town such as serving on the Finance Committee. He is a friend and supporter to everyone. He has a deep history and love for Chatham. It is said about Tommy that he always lends a hand but never takes any credit or glory!
Tommy will be driven in the parade along with his wife by his neighbor in his own Jeep!
JUDGES
The Judges for the 2022 parade will be:
- Ginny Nickerson – Ginny will be returning as our “Lead Judge this year. Ginny is a 12th generation “Chathamite” and past president of the Historical Society. It was said that “If there was a Ms Chatham, Ginny would be a hands down winner of the title.”
As you all know it is tradition for the Monomoy Regional High School Valedictorian to be asked to be a judge for the parade. Well this year we had a remarkable occurrence at Monomoy. Twin sisters were named Valedictorian and Salutatorian. So we asked them both to serve as judges.
- Nicole Peterson – Nicole was the valedictorian of the class of 2022 at Monomoy High School. She will be studying Neuroscience at Harvard in the fall and hopes to become a doctor.
- Victoria Peterson – Victoria was the salutatorian of the class of 2022 at Monomoy High School. She will attend Cornell in the fall where she will study Business and Hotel Administration.
Both are lifelong Chatham residents.
NATIONAL ANTHEM SINGER
This year’s National Anthem will be sung by Will Mulholland. Will is a Chatham Resident and served as the Class of 2022 President at Nauset Regional High School. Will is going to attend the University of Massachusetts at Amherst in the fall.
