2023 Kid’s Decorated WHEELS Parade

Calling all kids! Birth to 12 years old!

Join us for the 2023 Kid’s Decorated Wheels Parade at the Mind Your Health Community Event!

 

Saturday, May 20th, 2023
at Stone House in Wyomissing
1216 Parkside Drive North, Wyomissing, PA 19610
Parade Start: 10:30 AM

 

Calling all tricycles, bicycles, unicycles, scooters, wagons, strollers, wheelchairs, so on – if it is NON-MOTORIZED, permitted in the park and has wheels, we’d love to see it for this “wheely” fun parade around the lake! We will have decorating materials at the event this year, so feel free to either decorate your ride at home OR complete the decorating at the event, then show off all your hard work during the parade at 10:30am!

 

This year’s theme is…Show Your COLORS

 

Dress up and decorate those wheels with COLOR! Choose your favorite color or a rainbow of colors, the choice is yours. Be as wild and creative as you’d like!

  1. Complete the below registration form for EACH child participant so we know exactly how many to expect.
