NORTH BEND, ORE - Rain or shine, there is no doubt that a parade in North Bend on September 25th will still provide plenty of warm smiles, as the Hillah Shriners welcome their latest members.


Hosted by the Coos County Shrine Club, the parade will start at the west side of the Pony Village Mall and head east down Virginia Avenue to its final destination at the corner of Virginia and Union.

The parade marks the continued dedication and determination of Oregon's Shriners to keep their membership growing which, in turn, allows them to continue to help fund the 23 Shriner's Children's Hospitals in North America. That includes one in Portland.

The Shriner's parade starts at 10:30 a.m. at the west side of the Pony Village Mall this Saturday, September 25th.
