The Pet Parade & Fashion Show is one of many highlights of the upcoming Main Street Day in Ripon.

This event of the Ripon Chamber of Commerce will start at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 19, at the corner of Main Street and Stockton Avenue.

That’s the location of the Chamber booth, where participants are encouraged to show up at 10 o’clock to begin lining up for the parade.

From there, each pet will be dressed and ready to go, walking with their owners along Main Street to the Community Stage, across the stage, and back to the start.

Prizes will be awarded following the parade.

This year marks the 39th anniversary of Main Street Day, which will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. along historic downtown Ripon.

The Car Show featuring over 100 vehicles will be line up the downtown streets – between Acacia Avenue and Industrial Avenue – along with a variety of vendor booths.

Other Main Street Day events include:

·         Pumpkin decorating, a fall photo booth, fishing prize game, balloon animals, and other activities will take place at Calvary Reformed Church, 741 Second St., from 9 a.m. to noon.

·         The Family Fun Color hosted by the Ripon Unified Parents Club will start at 8 a.m. – run or walk – at Ripon High.
