The 87th Annual Fourth of July Dimmeydale Parade took place this morning with Wheeling Mayor Denny Magruder serving as the Grand Marshal and former Wheeling councilman Don Atkinson escorting him.

Here are a few photos of the procession guided by the Color Guard from Wheeling Post 1 and attended by Wheeling’s police and fire departments.
