Cascade Days • Saturday Parade

On Saturday morning, we expect an influx of visitors from around the region. To make parking easy, there will be free parking available at Concrete High School on Superior Avenue. A free “hop on – hop off” shuttle will run between 10 AM and 3 PM to take visitors to and from event activities near Main Street, Silo Park and Veterans Memorial Park. Reservations are not required, as the shuttle will make round trips continuously during that time. Hop on board, then when you’re ready to return to your car, just look for designated Shuttle Stops — make your day a lot less stressful.

Enjoy the Main event down Main Street! The Cascade Days Parade starts at 11:00 a.m. and travels west to east on Main Street. The judge’s stand is located in the Town Center, in what we locals call Bear Square.

Prepare to be entertained by local sports teams, churches, and class reunion floats. There’s a new “People’s Choice” award so spectators can weigh in on their favorites with cheers and applause.
