Star Spangled Sonoma

This year’s pageantry, inspired by the theme “Sonoma Strong,” celebrates local heroes with a lap around Sonoma Plaza beginning at 10 a.m. with the marching Hometown Band, fun floats, contingents from local nonprofits and community-minded businesses, veterans, vintage cars, horses, kids, the occasional dog, and lots of red, white and blue.

The Sonoma Volunteer Firefighters Association produces and staffs the all-American affair, and welcomes donations and parade entries (through June 27) at Sonomavolunteerfirefighters.org
