Party, paws & patriotism on Tiburon's Main Street

Tiburon marked the nation’s 250th anniversary of independence on July 4 with a downtown block party on lower Main Street, organized by the town and the Tiburon Peninsula Chamber of Commerce. Debbie Boeger brought her dog, Twinkle Little Star, and a flag-decked ‘USA’ wagon to the Pooch Parade, which led costumed dogs from Beach Road along Ark Row to Fountain Plaza. Sonoma rock band Gas Money performed for the crowd, while Buki the Clown painted a shark on the face of a young reveler on Ark Row. Crowds later gathered at Shoreline Park to watch San Francisco’s fireworks, launched from the Golden Gate Bridge, though fog obscured much of the show. (Ted McDonnell / For The Ark)
