If you’re looking for a very fun, community building event - then look no further than downtown Chander.

Tomorrow morning (Sat, 3/7) at approximately 10am, Arizona Ave will be closed to traffic and open for fun! The 21st Annual Thorobred Chevrolet Ostrich Festival Parade will travel south on Arizona Ave from Ray Road to Chicago (just south of the San Marcos Hotel).

It’s always such fun to watch the participating schools, bands, equestrians, motorcycle clubs … and of course, who could ever forget the always entertaining Michael Pollack Band?

For a more enjoyable time, I highly recommend bringing chairs and a blanket (just in case). Water bottles are also very nice to have on hand. All of the restaurants are typically open. Stopping by Bosa’s Donuts (just north of Ray on the west side of Arizona) is a great start to the morning. You can pick up an array of freshly baked treats, kid’s drinks, hot coffee or a dozen donut holes for about a buck.

We've participated in the parade for the last several years with the neighborhood elementary school, so I can honestly share with you - that's whether it's raining or sunny - it’s sure to be fun.

Bring the kids, wear comfy shoes and have fun! See you there?
