Passion for Parkinson’s Canada Day Parade
July 1, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm
On Saturday July 1st, Passion for Parkinson’s is celebrating Canada Day in active style. Please walk with us in the Port Credit Paint the Town Red parade as we showcase our passion for Parkinson’s, our Foundation exercise programs, and our community spirit. Rigid Riders will be joining them. Bring your Spinning Wheels Tour jersey , your bike, comfortable shoes, a big smile and join us for the fun and festivities. We are not sure if we will be riding in the parade or just walking our bikes with the float. We would also like to do our weekly bike ride on this day. Details will follow when we have more information on our numbers.
The parade will start promptly at 11:00 am commencing at Stavebank Road south and will travel along Lakeshore Road East for 1 mile.
Please confirm your participation by June 26th to Rick or Mike.
Hope to see you there.
