Juneteenth is a National Holiday!
As we commemorate this historic celebration, let’s dedicate ourselves to learning more about our shared American history. At the same time, let’s rise to the challenge of educating others and spreading awareness.
We warmly invite your organization or company to partner with Bridge the Gap314 and the City of Dellwood by entering a parade float in the 2025 Juneteenth Parade! This is a unique opportunity to celebrate freedom, honor history, and foster community connections.
This year's parade will take place on:
Thursday, June 19, 2025
Starting at the Boys and Girls Club on West Florissant in Ferguson and traveling west to the Dellwood Recreation Center. For more information please feel free to contact Twyla Lee:

Together, let’s bridge community gaps and celebrate unity.

Juneteenth to Me...
To me Juneteenth represents endless possibilities for what can be. Juneteenth to me is also a real-life reminder of the bondage that a lack of access, that a lack of knowledge and a lack of communication can hold people in. Just as Juneteenth reminds me of the dangers of not knowing and how the effects of being disconnected and left behind can affect families and communities for decades. So, Juneteenth to me marks the annual time where we can come together, assess and plan on how we can become more unified on uplifting not only our immediate communities but our neighboring communities as well.
