Calling all members! Come have a great time marching in the City’s annual Patriots’ Day Parade. Our garden club has participated for over 40 years and won many awards, including three 1st Place trophies.   You can carry our banners or signs, dance with our “Rakettes” drill team,  hand out Gate & Garden Tour postcards or simply march.

Have fun, support the community and help raise awareness of our club and what we do. It’s a wonderful event with 80+ groups marching; half the city is in the parade and the other half is watching! Remember, marching with our club is camaraderie, fun, and all downhill! Check your calendars and sign up at the February meeting.

We will assemble at 10 am in the parking lot opposite Laguna Beach High School, 625 Park Ave. Please be prompt, the parade starts at 11 am, the downhill route is one mile through downtown Laguna Beach, and we will finish at about 1 pm. We suggest wearing comfy shoes, blue jeans, white top, Garden Club apron, and decorated hat with flowers. Bring water, sunblock, tissue, phone if desired, lipstick with color, sun glasses.

Park in a neighborhood to avoid meters. The parade ends at city hall.

If you’d like to march with us, please contact Diane Kloke (kloke@cox.net) . It’s a memorable experience and enjoyable time!

Questions? We’d love to hear from you!
