Chester, CA (July 8, 2010) – The crowds cheered as the “Off-Road Patriots” rolled down Main Street in Chester, California with red, white and blue Polaris UTVs. The vehicles were colorfully decorated with flags, streamers and bows. Patriotic songs blasted from the SSV Works stereo and candy was tossed to the children. Over fifty pounds of candy was thrown, yet the bags were empty before the parade route was finished.
The day was quite warm with temperatures hovering around 90 degrees, so water blasters were an essential part of the festivities. Those who wished to get wet were definitely targeted and unfortunately, a few who didn’t got wet too.
The Off-Road Patriots’ decorations, music, and enthusiasm paid off with a first place ribbon in the group category.
Participating in the Chester 4th of July Parade was an amazing experience for the Off-Road Patriots. Not only did they feel the energy from thousands of people celebrating our country’s Independence Day, but they were also able to showcase three Polaris UTVs, including an electric-powered Polaris RANGER EV and the sporty RZR S.

Please note: We were traveling at a very slow rate of speed (less than 5 MPH) on a closed parade route. Otherwise we would always have our seat belts on, helmets on and no one in the back.
