Kids Day Parade


Kids Day took place on August 21st and was sponsored by the Stirling BIA. The covered bridge events that took place prior to the parade were a huge success! The highlight of the day was Dr. Kaboom's Mini Mobile Circus, in addition to performances featuring local Stirling talent!
Between 400-500 kids participated in Kids Day and took part in many activities including the dunk tank, bouncy castle, fortune teller, eating contests and many more fun-filled activities!

The Kids Day Parade was the icing on the cake as the Stirling Senior School yard filled with families and kids dressed in costumes and ready to roll! All 150th committee members were ecstatic about the overwhelming turn-out!
