Fourth of July sparkles for Lillian Way’s 25th annual festivities

This year’s Lillian Way block party was the 25th annual (minus a couple of COVID-19 years) Fourth of July get-together that neighbors living in the Lillian / Cahuenga / Wilcox corridor have celebrated.
However, the tradition predates this iteration — there has been some type of July 4th party on the 500 block of Lillian for close to 40 years.
GOOD TIMES were had by Mai Perez, left, and Charleigh Didlock.
This year, our festivities featured four bounce houses, from a tiny toddler-sized one to a 20-foot set of slides. We had our favorite taco truck come and serve tacos and quesadillas to all. We also had a shaved ice truck for desserts!
THREE-LEGGED RACE and other games were party highlights.
We ran the usual games, starting with the festive bike parade and continuing with a three-legged race and musical chairs. Prizes were awarded to winners, and all participants got a little something to take home.
MORE GAMES.
And of course, we all capped off the evening by watching the triumphant return of the Wilshire Country Club’s fireworks show. It wasn’t the same without it last year!
