North Ridge tradition dates to 1940s.

Spectators lined the streets of Beverley Hills as children of all ages participated in the annual Wheels Day parade down Old Dominion Boulevard May 26 in a Memorial Day weekend tradition that dates back to the 1940s.

Sponsored by The North Ridge Citizens’ Association, the parade featured decorated bikes and other wheeled toys and traversed a route from the circle at Chalfonte Drive to the Beverley Hills Church. Mayor Justin Wilson was on hand as prizes were awarded in several categories.
