Old South San Main Street was alive this weekend! 🎈 It’s more than just a parade; it’s a Old South San tradition.

We started at St. Joseph’s South San and ended at Dwight MiddleSchool, but the real finish line was seeing our local students get awarded the BE scholarships.

​Keeping the culture alive and the future bright. Love my neighborhood! Love my South San ! 💙🙌 Let’s Start Building!

If you interested in helping or entering the parade next year please comment below, DM us, or call 210-997-7898.
