USA "Colmo del Rodeo Parades, Salinas, CA" Jay Dunn 51 images Created 21 Oct 2015

The Colmo del Rodeo Parade is the traditional kickoff to Big Week of the California Rodeo Salinas. Revived in 2010 for the 100th anniversary of the rodeo, the night-lighted extravaganza on Saturday follows the Kiddy Kapers Parade, which features children. The whole town turns out to cheer, lining South Main Street with chairs, hay bales and noisemakers.
