Some came to get a spot for the Palos Heights 4th of July parade. 

Others came to sit in the driver's seat of a giant crane. Some climbed a tall rock wall, while others stuck themselves on a velcro well.

Between the ballon animals, pony rides and a large inflatable dragon, lots of fun was to be had at Palos Height's Independence Day Celebration at Memorial Park Wednesday.
