Hundreds of children and adults — and a few dogs — donned their red, white and blue for the annual pancake breakfast and All American Kids Parade Monday, July 4.

The breakfast was sponsored by the Winter Garden Masonic Lodge and Gymnastics USA, the parade by the West Orange Heritage Foundation and the event by the city of Winter Garden. The breakfast was held in the lodge, and families enjoyed stacks of flapjacks.

Outside, participants could pick up free streamers, signs and other red, white and blue items to decorate their bikes, scooters and strollers before the start of the parade. Mayor John Rees and wife Linda helped lead the parade along Plant Street.
