In 2005, the Gasparilla Extravaganza launched
its newest tradition – the Gasparilla Preschooler’s
Stroll! The Stroll was designed to give children five and
under an opportunity to experience parade-style fun in a venue
that is conducive for the youngest of pirates!
The Stroll is only ½ mile along Bayshore Blvd., from Bay
to Bay Blvd. to Howard Ave. The costumed participants are
given time to strut their stuff down Bayshore in piratical
preschool style – on foot, in a decorated wagon or stroller,
or on a festive tricycle or bicycle!
The
Gasparilla Preschoolers Stroll is open to the public. Participants
must be in pirate-themed attire and must be accompanied by an adult. Motorized
vehicles of any sort are NOT permitted in the Stroll. You can
download the pre-registration form on the Parade
Application page. Pre-registrations
must be submitted by January 4, 2008. Walk-up participants
will be admitted onsite if space is available. |
