Parking Hints
This year, the festival is being held at Nativity of Mary Catholic Church and School at the end of the parade. so that area will be very busy! The new route and festival location may change the best routes out of the area after the parade.
According to the organizers, there will be buses running from the Festival Site back to the Kennedy Parking Lot. They also noted that some units had small children running on residents’ property in the lineup area, so please make sure our unit is respectful of private property as always.
