Carpentersville El Grito Parade 2026
September 12, 2026 @ 10:30 am - 1:30 pm
The Dundee Township Democrats and Kane County Democrats are excited to participate in the El Grito Parade in Carpentersville! 🎉
El Grito is a joyful community celebration honoring Mexican Independence, Hispanic heritage, culture, and the vibrant diversity that strengthens our communities throughout the Fox Valley.
We’re looking for volunteers to help us create a fun, welcoming, and energetic presence in the parade while connecting with the community and celebrating inclusion, civic engagement, and people-powered organizing.
Volunteers may help with:
- Walking in the parade
- Carrying banners or signs
- Handing out candy, flyers, or giveaways
- Helping with lineup and staging
- Taking photos/video for social media
- Bringing positive energy and community spirit throughout the event
This is a family-friendly celebration filled with music, culture, community pride, and connection. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to meet fellow volunteers, connect with neighbors, and represent Democratic values of inclusion, opportunity, equality, and civic participation.
Additional details including lineup location, arrival time, parking information, and attire recommendations will be shared closer to the event date.
Come celebrate with us and help show that our communities are strongest when everyone is welcomed, valued, and included! 💙
