A pink ribbon parade is planned for Jaycee Lee Dugard Sunday to celebrate her reappearance after 18 years of captivity.

Jaycee was kidnapped in 1991 from a school bus stop when she was only 11-years-old.

The celebration is being organized by Soroptimist International of South Lake Tahoe, Calif. According to the Tahoe Daily Tribune, the parade will begin at the El Dorado County branch library on Rufus Allen Blvd. and proceed along Hwy. 50 to South Tahoe Middle School.

The route is the reverse of that walked on the 10th anniversary of Jaycee’s disappearance in 2001, according to Kathay Lovell, a South Lake Tahoe City Council member.

The theme of the parade is pink because that was Jaycee’s favorite color and her classmates at the time of her disappearance had started a pink ribbon campaign hoping for her safe return home.

Jaycee’s accused abductors, sex offender Phillip Garrido and his wife, Nancy, pleaded not guilty
on Friday to 28 felony counts regarding the kidnapping and captivity of Jaycee, including rape, sexual assault, abduction, and false imprisonment. Jaycee bore two female children, fathered by Garrido, during her captivity.
