Get ready for a fun-filled day of music, community, and red-white-and-blue ukulele joy!
Parade Day Schedule
11:30 AM
We will gather at our uptown staging spot to decorate the truck in festive red, white, and blue — and practice our two parade songs together. If not decorating come by 12:30. We’ll send an email the night before with the exact staging location once it’s confirmed.
1:00 PM – Parade Begins!
The parade starts on Lawrence Street, turns down Monroe Street, and ends on Water Street in front of the old City Hall building.
A few folks will ride on the float while the rest of us march alongside, strumming, singing, waving, and spreading smiles all along the route!
