All American, Fabulous, Fantastic, Anyone-Can-Join Fourth of July Parade - July 4th in Corvallis




Once again it’s time for the All American, Fabulous, Fantastic, Anyone-Can-Join Fourth of July Parade, which starts 10:30 a.m. and originates at Central Park in downtown Corvallis….on Monday, July 4th, of course!

All greyhounds/sight hounds and their families are invited to assemble at 10:00 a.m. at the Corvallis Arts Center, located in Central Park (the same location as last year). If tradition continues, the route will proceed east along Monroe Avenue from Eighth Street to First Street, then south along First Street to Adams Avenue, then west one block to Second Street, where it continues south to the skate park. This year, those of us with dogs are asked to line up behind those not walking their pets.

Bring water for your pooches and be prepared for lots of "ooooohs" and "ahhhhs" as we walk the parade route. Dashes to the sidelines for lots of pets and hugs (for the greys, of course!) are encouraged!

Those of you who took part in the parade last year know how much fun this parade can be, as the Willamette Valley Greyhound Lovers were one of the most popular participants in past parades!

This is a GREYT opportunity to promote Greyhound adoption and share the joy of having a Greyhound as a member of the family.



The parade weather forecast is 70 degrees and sunny!!

If you have questions about the parade, feel free to email me at greyhoundude@yahoo.com

See you there!
