Parade entries will line up at Hermiston High School before heading west down Highland Avenue, turning onto Seventh Street, before continuing down Hermiston Avenue where it will cross Highway 395 onto Gladys Avenue. It will then turn down N.E. Third Street, then onto Main Street where it will again cross Highway 395 before concluding near McKenzie Park.
