Rainbow Races, Inc. will hold a pride boat parade. We will support them so lets pull out our flags and dust off our Speedos!Deck your boat in as many rainbows as you can, follow ALL guidelines given by the city/state regarding passengers, masks, and social distancing. We MUST be responsible boaters!
The Plan:
Decorate your boat in Pride Colors!
We will begin a pre-parade circle just south of the Adler Planetarium, near 12th St. Beach between 1:30p and 2p, boats should be monitoring VHF 72. Upon arriving at the circle hail the parade leader on VHF channel 72, to check in. Please maintain at least 50ft between you and the boat in front of you.
Beginning at 2pm we will begin the parade and head North around the Planetarium and Shedd, entering through the south opening of Monroe Mooring Field, passing Queens Landing and exiting Monroe Mooring Field, then past the tip of Navy Pier, through the “Playpen” and out the Eastern entrance to it, following the shore until we reach North Avenue Beach. After the parade, participants are invited to raft up near North Ave. Beach immediately following, or at Monroe South if the waves are too much. (weather and space pending). If the wind and waves prove too much, we will cut things short and end in the “Playpen.”
