Contra Costa Parents of Multiples

 

 

CCPOM is a membership organization for mothers and fathers of twins, triplets, quadruplets and higher-order multiples. Our goal is to share parenting experiences, provide support and enjoy social gatherings with other families of multiples.     

  

CCPOM has been celebrating multiples in Contra Costa County for over 50 years!  Our club was founded by Jeanice Krohn in 1957 and we are the oldest "Mothers of Twins Club" in Northern California. CCPOM is a member of the National Organization of Mothers of Twins Clubs, Inc. (NOMOTC) and the Northern California Association of Mothers of Twins Clubs (NCAMOTC).       

 

CCPOM members reside in the following Northern California cities: Alamo, Antioch, Bay Point, Benicia, Brentwood, Concord, Crockett, Discovery Bay,  El Cerrito, El Sobrante, Fairfield, Hercules, Lafayette, Martinez, Oakley, Orinda, Pleasant Hill, San Ramon, Vallejo and Walnut Creek.

4th of July Parade
Downtown Pleasant Hill
Time be announced

Come out and show your multiples pride with other CCPOM families by marching in Pleasant Hill's 4th of July Parade on Thursday, July 4th.  We will be providing Pete's coffee before the parade begins.

The crowds line up along Crescent Drive and cheer as CCPOM is announced.  The kids get a kick out of having all eyes on them!  So wear your red, white and blue and dress up your strollers, wagons, tricycles or just yourself.  

Immediately following the parade there are festivities at the Pleasant Hill Park located downtown at the corner of Cleaveland & Gregory Lane, a short walk from the parade route, including live music, and even a petting zoo

 

The Pleasant Hill parade is very well organized and so there is not a lot of waiting, and the parade route is nice and short which is great for kids. 

  

For general information, you can visit:  http://www.phjuly4.com/

Please register for this event on the website 4Th Of July Parade so we know how much coffee to provide.
