The July 4th festivities kicks off at 10:30 a.m. with a family parade that captures the essence of community spirit. Be sure to dress up in your most patriotic attire and bring your little ones along. Walk, ride a bike, or cruise in a golf cart with your family, friends, and local organizations as the community parades north on Harbor Boulevard on the west side of the Harbor. It starts on Albacore Way, travels north up Harbor Blvd. and ends at Cabezone Circle, home to Marine Emporium Landing. Participants should start gathering at 10 a.m.
You must have a 4th of July Family Parade form filled out and submitted prior to participating. On July 4th, there will be a sign-in table at the corner of Harbor Blvd. and Albacore Way – the start of the parade route.
