SAN BRUNO, Calif.—The customary sirens announced the start of the 76th annual Posy Parade on a brilliantly sunny morning in San Bruno, Calif. on June 5.
Close to 10,000 people attended the celebration, which is put on each year by the San Bruno Lion’s Club in celebration of the children of San Bruno. In addition to the parade, this year saw the addition of a big community festival in the park, complete with rides, a stage with music and bands, and a car show.
“We donate this parade to the entire city,” said Mel Phillips, chairman of the San Bruno Lion’s Club. “The purpose of this parade has always been to honor the children of San Bruno.”
“This is a great community event; it’s all about family,” said Congresswoman Jackie Speier. She advised everyone, “Enjoy your family and have some fun. School’s over; you’ve worked really hard. Now have some fun!”
