This weekend: Wallingford Kiddies Parade and Street Fair

Snapshot from 2006 Wallingford Kiddies Parade, originally uploaded by jwalsh.

This is it, folks—tomorrow brings what could well be the signature public event of our little 'hood. At 11am, the Wallingford Kiddies Parade begins, bringing assorted drill teams, packs of local schoolchildren, and sundry parade floats to N 45th Street. There will also be a street fair running from 10am to 5pm on Wallingford Avenue N along the west side of Wallingford Center.

As the only kid-focused event of the Seafair summer cycle, it's a nicely low-key event in comparison to speedboats and fighter jets. Plus, there'll be high-stepping drill teams galore and lots of candy-flinging marchers. Join the fun tomorrow at 11!
