“Michigan is the Great Lakes state. Nothing will show off that better than a massive MAGA boat parade,” said Rosanne Ponkowski, speaking on behalf of boat parade sponsor, Michigan Conservative Coalition headquartered in Walled Lake.

The Lake St. Clair/Detroit River parade will launch from the 28-story Shore Club highrise, locally known as "9 Mile Tower," at the foot of Nine Mile Rd near Jefferson Ave. on Lake Saint Clair. Launch time is set for 1 p.m.

The parade will head down to Hart Plaza with additional watercraft joining as the flotilla passes marinas along the route. Expected arrival is 4 p.m.
