Half Moon Bay was alive with small town spirit on Sunday at the 50th annual âOl Fashioned Fourth of Julyâ parade and festival.
A steady stream of visitors and locals alike poured into the townâs Main Street to enjoy an event billed as the Coastside Rising âSo Happy Together.â
âWe love the community here and the small-town feel,â said Leonie Wohl who came from Burlingame for the parade.
The festival marked a return to normalcy as large outdoor gatherings are now permitted under San Mateo County and state guidelines. With last yearâs celebration canceled due to the pandemic, organizers aimed to highlight newfound optimism and hope at the gathering.

Processing delays and the fact that many on the coast pay their rent under the table have plagued a state program that has only doled out a fraction of the $70 million set aside to help San Mateo County residents pay their rent in the midst of a devastating pandemic.
After the coronavirus pandemic shut down industries statewide last year, California instituted a ban on evictions to help renters newly out of work. The ban is set to expire June 30, when some residents will owe more than a yearâs worth of rent or face eviction. The stateâs newly launched Housing Is Key program is designed to get Californians out of rental debt and make up for lost landlord income to keep people housed, but less than 1 percent of that money is in the hands of local renters.

Anyone 16 and older in California is now eligible for COVID-19 vaccination, but securing an appointment nearby may not be easy.
Thursday and Friday, it appeared few appointments were available locally. The stateâs MyTurn signup tool showed no availability near the Coastside or in the Bay Area. Local pharmacy websites like CVS, Rite Aid and Safeway were all booked up on the Coastside.
Appointments were sporadically available through Kaiser Permanente, Sutter Health and other local health care providers this week, but many required traveling hours for open appointments.
A county update on Thursday acknowledged the difficulty residents are having in finding local appointments as supply remains limited. The county urges residents to turn to health care providers and local pharmacies that are getting larger numbers of vaccines.
