Celebrating the Bud Billiken Parade: Commissioner Bill Lowry’s Commitment to Community

The Bud Billiken Parade, an iconic annual tradition on Chicago’s South Side, stands as the largest African American parade in the United States. Since 1929, it has celebrated unity, education, and cultural pride, bringing together communities to honor the strength and achievements of the South Side.

Last year, Commissioner Bill Lowry proudly participated in the parade, riding in a beautifully decorated truck alongside community members and local leaders. As the truck made its way through the festive streets, Commissioner Lowry connected with residents, waving to enthusiastic crowds and sharing in the joyous atmosphere. His presence symbolized his deep commitment to fostering togetherness and investing in the youth who represent the future of Cook County.

The Commissioner’s involvement in the Bud Billiken Parade highlights his dedication to uplifting his constituents and celebrating the rich history and culture of the community. Events like this reinforce the importance of unity and the shared goal of empowering the next generation to reach their full potential.

Commissioner Lowry looks forward to future parades and continuing his work to celebrate and strengthen the vibrant communities of Cook County. Stay tuned for updates on his efforts and upcoming events!
