This Saturday at 1pm is the Grand Patriotic Parade!  Therapy Dogs United has a float in the parade...which from what I hear is going to be pretty fantastic!!

There are going to be over 200 units: 20 bands, 50 floats, and even giant helium-filled balloons!  The parade it 1.8 miles running from 12th & Cherry to 3rd & State through downtown Erie

So if you're in the Erie area, make it a point to come celebrate with us and the anticipated crowd of nearly 100,000!  Look for us...we'll give you a clue.  If not, tune in Monday for details!!
