The City of Atascadero celebrated its 52nd annual Colony Days and 51st Colony Days Parade at the Sunken Gardens, bringing the community together for a day of hometown spirit. The event featured a parade, marching bands, carnival games, live music, vendors, and more.
Festival vendor Brian Watson said, “It was a little slow this morning; no one really attended the parade because it was pouring. But as the afternoon goes on, the weather’s clearing up and things are picking up.”
However, Elizabeth Enriquez-Phillips, the parade director and Colony Days Committee co-chair, reached out to KSBY and told us that a few hundred spectators were in attendance along the route of the parade.
Festivities will continue through Sunday, November 16, from 12 p.m. to 10 p.m.
