Lincoln Highway Bridge Festival and 5K Run
The Lincoln Highway Bridge Festival is held annually, the third weekend in May. .
Parade line up!!
This afternoon’s entertainment acts will be moved into the fire station bay due to chilly temps and threat of rain! Please come in from the cold to watch:

The 2022 Lincoln Highway Bridge Festival Parade will be held at 10:00 am on Saturday, May 21.
The parade route will be slightly different for this year because we want to take the opportunity to include the Lincoln Highway Bridge on our journey!
Participants in the parade will line up beginning at 9:30 am at the Tama Livestock Auction and continue along 5th Street to downtown Tama. The parade will end by Tama Eagles. Parade watchers will be encouraged to enjoy the parade from downtown Tama, as usual.
High School and Middle School bands and other walkers plan to follow a shorter route and will slip in between vehicle entries closer to downtown Tama.
(Please allow those folks walking in the parade to slide in when they indicate they want to)
