We have been fortunate in New England to be able to have hosted numerous championship parades in Boston over the past decade.

The Bruins celebration parade is this Saturday, June 18 at 11:00 a.m. Whether the Bruins parade is your first championship celebration parade or your fourth, it is going to be a memorable day.

Below are a couple tips to keep in mind while you are gearing up for a day filled with Boston pride.
