Judi Todd, Bette Jane Wells and Choice Kinchen will visit our local organizations. PROMOTIONAL SALES - To date, $4,793.07 has been deposited. PARADE LINE-UP- Dave Zwingman gave a printed report. Due to rain approximately 20% of the entries did not show. The fire dept. and dignitaries should be given a confirmation next year so the flow of traffic will go more smoothly. JUDGES- Perhaps next year the judges could ride in the parade with the Honor Guard and be let off at the judges stand. GATHERING- Paid for dignitaries luncheon out of the Gathering. FIREWORKS- If the fireworks should be changed due to rain, a sign should be put up at the highschool or have the P.D. to direct traffic. ALL WENT WELL !!! NO MAJOR LAST MINUTE PROBLEMS!!! IT HAS ONLY RAINED TWICE IN THE LAST 20 YEARS SO WE DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IT FOR A FEW YEARS!!!!!
