About the Parade
The 14th annual Earth Day Parade will once again kick off the Earth Day Fair with children and adults dressed in a costume of their favorite species or representation of the natural world. There are three parade rules: no written words, no motorized vehicles, and no live pets. The parade will be held in downtown Bend with staging at 10:30am on Louisiana Avenue next to McMenamins.
The parade will begin at 11:00am, winding through downtown Bend and ending at the Earth Day Fair on Kansas Avenue in front of The Environmental Center in downtown Bend. This is a free event. For more information about the Parade or workshops call 385-6908 x 15 or visit www.envirocenter.org.
