The Children’s Parade and Picnic on July 13 hit a record number of happy faces. Based on the total number of hot dogs eaten (and that doesn't include popcorn, snow cones, or the watermelon-eating contest), we had well over 250 attendees.
Led by the local fire engine, families had a blast participating in the parade, sack races, tug-of-war, water balloon tosses, crafts, face painting, music and more on a gorgeous Saturday afternoon.
