The Green Valley Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will hold its ninth annual Pioneer Parade this Saturday. The celebration is open to members of the church and the public.

The parade, which will begin at 9 a.m. at the church, 410 Valle Verde Drive, commemorates the 1847 arrival in Salt Lake City of early Mormon leaders, who were fleeing persecution in the east. The procession will conclude in Fox Ridge Park, where food and activities will be available.
