The 24th Annual Pet Parade will be taking over the streets of Eastsound on Saturday, May 24.

Kaleidoscope Preschool and Child Care Center is at it again, preparing for the island’s furry friends parade. The starting location is school road at 10 a.m. for judging. As usual, the parade will start at 11 a.m.  Participants will mosey down School Road to North Beach Rd., take a left on A Street, right on Prune Alley, right on Main Street, then back on North Beach Road to the Eastsound Village Green Band Shell. Rumor has it that Children’s House Mayoral Candidates will be campaigning so come schmooze with the politicians.

Participants will be divided into two categories:

1. Children and pets who want to be categorized and judged for trophy award to be presented on Eastsound Village Green.

2. Participants who want to be eligible for Pawki’s “Best Adult Entry” gift certificate and are there primarily for the parade experience. All participants will register, get photographed, and get goodies of their choice from Pawki’s.  Entries will not be allowed to enter either judging line after 10:45 a.m.

Also available at the end location will be kid friendly food (donated by The Lower Tavern) and customized Kaleidoscope T-shirts.

Any questions, call Kaleidoscope at 376-2484.
