There are also arts and craft booths and entertainment for the thousands of people that attend the festival immediately after the parade.

We are proud that the members of our organization have operated the Peninsula Celebration Association since 1939 as a true volunteer group. our goal is to help make our city not just a place to live, but a real community of people who care!!
