Another signature B'game event is this Saturday as the seventh annual Pet Parade kicks off Fall.  The summer eventswere a big success and I'm sure the Pet Parade will be too.  From my experience, you want to survey the contestants up close in the parking lot across from Groomingdales before the actual parade kicks-off.  With the Giants on a tear, expect lots of orange and black.

The judges are Jon Mays, Editor of the Daily Journal; Lisa Van Buskirk, VP of the Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA; Michael Levy, president and founder of Pet Food Express; and Jacquie Cooke Haggarty, president of the Mothers Club, so you know who to lobby on behalf of Bowser and Puddy-tat.
