I am looking for information on how to help be a sponsor?
Thank you
Hi Dennis,
You can find information about current sponsors of the Klamath Freedom Celebration parades (Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Veterans Day) on this page: https://www.klamathfc.org/sponsors. It looks like the “Sponsorship Information” link on the bottom of that page is inactive, so I would try to directly contact Mark Dodson, the COO of the Klamath Freedom Foundation, via email to klamathfreedom@gmail.com or by calling 541-450-7950. Hope this helps! -Marc
Thank you
I need to get an application for the parade. When I click on it, it comes up 2023??
Hi Ann. Thanks for your post. You are not the only one!
I have received word from the folks at the County and at Freedom Celebration Foundation who are organizing the 2024 Memorial Day parade that the “Registration” tab on the https://www.klamathfc.org/ page is now active. So you can now register for this year’s parade. Here is a direct link to the Memorial Day Parade registration page: https://www.klamathfc.org/component/eventbooking/35-parade-2024. Note that the registration remains open until 5-25-24.
Hope this helps! All the best, Marc.
thank you
Been trying to sign up to be in the parade. It’s not letting me.
Hi Bill. Thanks for your post. Just wanted to make sure you got a reply and knew I have been in touch with the folks putting on the parade as to exactly where the registration forms for this year (2024) will be posted. I should have an answer very soon and will let you know. Best, Marc.

Hi Maggie! Yes, indeed there is an application (registration) process: it’s right here.
