GPAC will have an entry in the 2010 Pride Parade. This is a huge parade with a wide variety of participants and spectators. GPAC receives adoption applications as a direct result of participation in this parade every year, so it is important that we have a good group of hounds like previous years.
From the parade coordinator:
We will be staging at the Ultramar parking lot on Pleasant Street. Gates will be open at 8:00 AM and form up at 9:00 AM, we will at this time commence the judging of the entries.
The parade will march off at 10:00AM and make its way to the Oceanview Manor where it will end and the awards will be given out.
