The 71st Annual Parade is Saturday, July 25!  The city’s theme is “Stars, Stripes and Christmas Lights". At OCYC we will take it a little further and celebrate Christmas in July. Please wear your festive summer holiday best!

Please take a moment to read the below and share with all members of your party.
