2018 theme of Laguna’s Patriots Day Parade includes waves
Organizers of the annual Laguna Beach Patriots Day Parade announced the theme of next year’s parade — “Waves of Freedom.”
Laguna Beach’s seaside location lends itself to waves in the theme for the 52nd parade, scheduled for March 3, according to a news release.
The flag waving above the shore at Monument Point is an iconic image of Laguna Beach, the release states.
“That image reminds us how freedom has grown in our nation since its founding in 1776,” the statement says.
The parade committee will select participants such as the Honored Patriot, grand marshal and Artist of the Year.
Various organizations in town create floats for the parade, and band members from schools throughout Southern California perform during the festivities.
Advertising and donations fund the parade. The advertising deadline is Jan. 8 and the entry deadline is Jan. 12.
