Trophies are awarded in several categories and all participants get a parade ribbon.It is an easy short 1/2 mile walk down Trabuco Oaks Drive, past the General Store then into the school parking lot for weenies and the award ceremony.As we celebrate with you as a community, let's keep it fun and leave the politics at home.
