Frog Jump Youth Parade

Frog Jump Youth Parade

Once again, Soroptimist International of Calaveras County invites the entire community to attend and participate in the Frog Jump Youth Parade.  This year’s kickoff to the Jumping Frog Jubilee will be Thursday, May 16, at 10:00 a.m. in Historic Angels Camp.

Individuals, families, and groups may participate in the parade.  Entry forms are available at the following locations:  Angels Sheet Metal, the Fairgrounds, and the Visitors Center in Angels Camp; Teddi Paul State Farm Insurance in Murphys; Barry Ward Realty in Arnold; Calaveras Telephone in Copperopolis; the Chamber of Commerce Office and Dave Bean Engineering in San Andreas; Maynard Management in West Point; and all County Library locations.
 
This year’s Frog Jump theme is “Cowboy Boots and Country Roots.”  So put your imagination to work as you choose what part of cowboy boots or country roots your entry will represent!  Cash awards will be available to the best entries in several categories.

Just attending the parade?  Wear your favorite hat and sunscreen and park on the side streets of Historic Angels Camp prior to the closure of Highway 49 at 9:45 a.m. on May 16.
