Both lanes of Birch Bay Drive will be closed along the parade route starting 11:30 a.m. August 27 and will reopen when the parade finishes. The parade is expected to last until 1 p.m., but the number of parade entries will determine its length, according to the chamber.

Discover Birch Bay Days will celebrate its 43rd annual event from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, August 27 and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday, August 28. Local vendors will be selling goods and Friends of Birch Bay Library will have a book sale all day both weekends.
