Because we do have one of the biggest porches in town, Old Mission San Jose entered the first ever Fremont 4th of July Porch Parade, representing the MSJ Chamber of Commerce. You may read about it here. Basically, this new idea emerged from the disappointment that Fremont will not have a Parade this year due to COVID-19. As a substitute, residents and businesses have been asked to decorate their porches patriotically. And awards will be given out for various categories. Our decorations, provided by the goodly Dominican Sisters, went up on June 20th and will stay up through July 4th.
