This 4th of July, participate in the Danville 4th of July Parade with San Ramon Cub Scouts Packs: 1776, 996, 997, and 203! Together, we will walk through downtown Danville, wave, sing, and give away goodies to hundreds of cheering folks.
To be in the parade, scouts and adults must be in Class A uniform (closed toe shoes, no flip flops). Bring water and wear sunscreen. Our Pack will provide participating scout a bag of goodies to give away to the audience.
On the day of the event, please check in with Grace Dagen and stay with your scout until the parade starts at 9:00 A.M. Leaders in uniform will lead your scout in the parade and meet you at the end of the parade route at Sycamore Valley Boulevard (near Piatti’s restaurant), where you can pick up your child. Assume one hour from start for our scouts to reach the finish point. DO NOT leave with your child until you have signed out with Grace!
If you have a Lion or Tiger scout, Grace can give you a Class B shirt so you can be in the parade with him. Please contact her in advance. We have a limited number of yellow Class B shirts left; first RSVP, first serve.
