It’s an alcohol free event, with the parade will begin on Bayshore Boulevard between Bay to Bay and Edison. The forecast has a 30% chance of rain, with a high of 68 for Saturday. And remember to keep the beads out of the Bay!

These are rapid-antigen tests that have a reputation of not being the most accurate, and you need to wait at least three days after you suspect you’ve been exposed to test for the virus. For additional information on COVID-19 please check the Dove page.
