What better way is there to kick off a parade? It was easy to join the fun festivities at Claremont Day during the Los Angeles County Fair Thursday, as hundreds listened to the beautiful sounds from the Claremont High School band. From that point on, floats, bikes and plenty of friends and family of Claremont packed the streets like a July Fourth parade. It was a good day to be at the fair. COURIER photo/Rachel Fagg
