Sean Humphrey gets patriotic for the 2009 Greater Brandon "United We Stand" Fourth of July Parade, a huge community event that this year drew more than 100 entries. Organizers said the Great Recession has caused more people to stay closer to home this holiday season and they were glad to have them at the parade, which has been held annually for more than 50 years. Brandon as a much smaller town grew up with parades and the Fourth of July Parade is the last one remaining. Its scope and size surprises newcomers each year. The parade is run by the Roundtable Charities of Greater Brandon Inc., more commonly known as the Community Roundtable and formerly known as the President's Roundtable. The parade kicks off at the corner of Lumsden Road and Parsons Avenue, where B. Lee Elam, president of the Roundtable, has his law office. It was in his office the morning of July 4, 2009, that donations were counted and Connie Smaldone was named the newest Honoray Mayor of Brandon.
