San Bruno’s 70th Annual Posy Parade
San Bruno’s 70th Annual Posy Parade is this Sunday, June 6th at 1:00 and it’s going to be a blast this year! The theme is “Green Transportation”. The annual “Festival of Flowers” started in 1941 as a tribute to children. The parade, traditionally for kids 14 and under has acheived both state and national fame for San Bruno.
Each year, the community gathers along San Mateo Ave. and Crystal Springs Rd. to watch marching bands, decorated floats from schools and service clubs, sports teams, dance troops, and the Posy Parade Princess and her court. The mayor passes by on a fire truck and police cars pull up the rear!
At the end of the parade we are entertained by a few baseball games including an all 8th grade game of St. Robert’s and Parkside and an all 10 year old game. We usually have great weather during the parade and it looks like we will be lucky again this Sunday! This is an event you won’t want to miss!

Wow, it is time already for another Posy Parade.
The Parade is a wonderful tradition and it all about our young ones. They get so excited to be a part of it. It seems to bring everyone in the City out to see it too!

Always a great community event, it will seem a bit different being on the side lines this year.
Karin,
This years parade was a great success, and the San Bruno Lions Club are already looking forward to next years theme and parade. Thank you for your kind support.
I went to the Posy Parade this year and loved it! It was fantastic. I was wondering if you could tell me where the hand carts were sourced that some of the smaller groups used as a basis for their float?
thanks, Christine
