- Entire Parade Route Collector – These volunteers will walk the 1.2 mile length of the parade with a bucket soliciting donations. Children must be accompanied by an adult
- Block Parade Collector – If you’re watching the parade and are willing to walk around “your parade spot” with a collection bucket, we’d be very grateful. Children must be accompanied by an adult.

We also need a variety of volunteers to do less than glamorous jobs for July 4th. Many of these jobs can be done without missing the parade or fireworks. Please submit our Volunteer Form if you would like to Volunteer…
Handicapped Parking — For the past few years, we have had not had handicapped parking for disabled residents. This year, the high school is letting us use the parking lots. We need approximately 4 volunteers to guard the entrance of the CHS cafeteria parking lot from 5–9 p.m. and check handicapped tags and permits. This would be a great family activity. There are real perks with this job. Your family can park at CHS too and watch the fireworks from the best spot in Catonsville. You are done after 9 p.m. All the water you can drink! Mostly, you will be providing a chance for our disabled residents to have access to the fireworks, something we could not provide the last few years.
