Seattle Base and the Silent Service Motorcycle Club will be participating in the Kirkland parade on Tuesday, July 4, 2016. The City of Kirkland goes all out for veterans and always has treats, lunch, and boutonnieres for all military members and veterans in the parade.

You can start arriving around 9:00 AM. The city will start closing down streets near the parade route around 9:30. If you are arriving after that time it is best to plan to get to the parking areas from the north heading south down Market Street.
To get to the assembly area from I-405, you take Exit 18 off of 405,
head west toward Kirkland. This road turns into Central Way. Follow
Central until you reach Market and turn right to find parking at
Heritage Park. You’ll pass Heritage Hall while looking for parking.
Parking is available north of Heritage Hall in the boat ramp parking
area and at Waverly Park.

We will meet near Heritage Hall, the large white two-story building on the north side of the corner of Central Way and Market Street. The Seattle Base float will be in place in the assembly area around 9:30 and all submarine veterans and motorcycles can meet near the float. We should be near the start of the parade.
Refreshments will be served around 11:00 and we will gather for a veterans group photo
shortly after that. The main parade starts at noon.
We hope to see you there!
