Parade to Celebrate Pirate’s Football Championships

Written by Estero Bay News

The whole community is coming together to salute Morro Bay High Football Team’s best season ever with an old fashioned parade through town and the call is out for people to participate.

The parade is being co-sponsored and organized by the City Recreation Department and organized by team parents and is set for 11 a.m. May 1, starting on The Embarcadero and parading up the hill to City Park on Harbor Street where a ring ceremony will be held.

MBHS’s Pirates Varsity Football Team won the CIF Central Section Championship, then took the Regional Title and made it to the State Championship Game for the first time in school history this past season (2021).

The parade will be organized under the auspices of the police department using rolling, temporary, street closures as the celebrants make their way through the waterfront and Downtown. Traffic delays should then be minimal.

A limited number of chairs will be available at City Park, so organizers ask that you bring your own chair or blanket to the ring ceremony, which should get underway at about noon. Check the MB Pirates Football Facebook page for updates
