The City of Sarasota did it again and put together a great parade in advance of the Suncoast Super Boat Grand Prix and Festival.  COSPB was the only sponsored and featured band in the large parade put on annually. 

There are about 100,000 spectators expected over the weekend and the parade route was packed with thousands of people.  We had a blast!

Here are a couple more pictures from the event.
