GFNJ WILL NOT BE MARCHING IN THE PARADE

NOTE: We will only participate in the parade if the weather is not over 85

Join GFNJ in celebrating the 4th of July !

GFNJ has been invited to participate in the Asbury Park 4th of July Parade.

More info to follow - we did this last year and it was lots of fun and the greys attracted a great deal of positive attention.

Our lineup location is on Grand between Monroe and Sewell. Lineup is at noon, so will meet at Asbury Bark around 11 (611 Cookman Avenue). We suggest that you park in the parking garage on Bangs Avenue, which is not too far from Asbury Bark. We will shuttle cars to the parade finish line so that folks can just leave after the parade.

The Parade will go down Cookman, up Main Street, and up 5th Avenue to Convention Hall (same as last year).

Anyone coming who drives a wagon or SUV, we'd greatly appreciate if they could help with carpooling to minimize parking headaches at the parade.
We hope to have an SUV following us in the parade for relief and supplies.

Marchers should come prepared with the following:
A backpack or a tote bag (something they can march with).
A small water dish to use when the parade is in still-motion to keep the dogs hydrated.
Sunscreen for themselves and their dogs.
If they have hats or visors for their dogs, they should bring them as well.
Water
Spray bottles to cool the dogs off.

Parade begins at 1pm sharp.
Must be in line by 12:15pm sharp.
