Sail4th 250 — Homecoming of Heroes Ticker-Tape Parade

NYC's 'Homecoming of Heroes' ticker-tape parade honoring post-9/11 veterans and first responders is scheduled as part of the Sail4th 250 celebration, the largest international maritime event in U.S. history. Staten Island residents can watch tall ships in the harbor from the St. George waterfront — a once-in-a-generation event.
