Who doesn’t love a parade?The Pleasanton Vesparado‘s scooter club Will yet again be in the annual downtown holiday parade in Pleasanton, California, Saturday, December 5 at 5 PM.
We usually dress up, decorate our scooters with lights, and have a riproaring ride down Main Street at about 1 mile an hour 😂
If you would like to join us, we would love to have you! Just to avoid confusion, please remember you may not dress like Santa Claus for this parade, or Mrs. Claus. There is only one of those allowed at the parade, and it is at the end on the firetruck. You also may not throw candy or distribute anything from your scooter.
We will meet for dinner and to warm up after the parade, we will announce the location a week beforehand.
Here are some guidelines for the cities website for being in this year‘s parade
