The Qualicum Beach Fire Department is supplying two fire trucks and the Rotarians will be proudly representing many local businesses. Qualicum Beach Mayor Brian Wiese will also be in the parade and the many others in the parade represent the residents who did their part by staying at home and practising social distancing.

The parade participants will leave Rotary Park and head south.
