Kids wait for the start of the Kaleidoscope Pet Parade in 2011
From Kaleidoscope
On Saturday May 26th, the 22st Annual Pet Parade will be taking over the streets of Eastsound!
Kaleidoscope is at it again, preparing for the island’s furry friends parade, starting location is School Road at 10 a.m. for judging. The parade will start at 11 a.m. and end at the Eastsound Village Grounds in the heart of downtown.
Slight changes to the route were made last year so that we could accommodate for the island’s hoofed animals. That’s right! The 4-H club, Orcas Trailblazers will be joining the fun!
