Lollipop Parade

Tri-C Annual Lollipop Parade, September 8, 2013

Come one, come all to the Annual Tri-C Lollipop Parade!  The parade will be on Sunday, September 8.  The theme this year is This Land is Your Land to honor all in the agricultural business.   The Tri-C Community of Clyde, Conception, and Conception Junction have many farms, some managed by the same families for generations, and there are many others in the community who are in the agriculture business.

The Lollipop Parade will be held on Sunday, September 8, in Conception Jct. beginning at 3:00 p.m.  Participants and organizations in the parade are encouraged to dress and decorate themselves, their bikes, floats, etc. as those in the agri-business.  Dutch and Mary Luke, long-time farmers and members of the Tri-C Community, will serve as the parade’s Grand Marshals.

Those who wish to participate in the parade are asked to meet at 2:30 p.m. in front of the MFA of downtown Conception Jct.  The parade route will follow the highway then turn onto Berry Street and end at the park next to the American Legion.

Everyone gathered at the park will recite the Pledge of Allegiance, sing The Star Spangled Banner, and sing together “This Land is Your Land.”  Then the all-important, and highly-anticipated, final segment of the event will be the handing out of lollipops to anyone who goes down the big slide in the park. 

The St. Columba Parish Social will follow the Lollipop Parade festivities beginning at 4:00 p.m. in the church’s hall and parking lot.

 

Separate entry:

The Tri-C Community Development Organization will hold a bake sale at the Parish Social. Donations for this walk will be appreciated.

Baked goods can be left in the church hall anytime before 4:00 p.m. the day of the Parish Social.

All School Reunion 3013

       Classes whose graduating year ended in three were the honorees or entertainment (you choose) at the Jefferson C-123 all school reunion sponsored by the Jefferson C-123 Educational Foundation on June 8, 2013. The class of 1953 had a large group representing them. They had some great stories. Most other classes had small representations. The class of 1963 met earlier June 8, 2013 to have their own reunion.  I was told that only about 3 out of that class did not make that reunion.  Virg and Gene Miller provided the beverage from their own grape vines to that earlier reunion.  . 

     Sheila Schieber (I know I will spell her married name wrong) and Ray Jermain, class of 1963 said they would tell no secrets from their earlier meeting.

     Kim Archer Kato, class of 1993, was kind enough to mention two of her teachers in the audience and related no stories about them.  

     Dana Strueby, Cindy Henry Price and Nicole Mattson Ginther, class of 2003, remembered events of their time at Jefferson.
     Marge Wolfer and Tim Jermain gave updates on the scholarships provided through and by the Foundation. Tim also talked about the educational achievements of the school.
Other entertainment, Soggy Barnard Boys, was provided by some former students and friends who have strong voices and are not afraid to laugh at themselves therefore allowing the audience to laugh.  Fun was had by all.
     A big thank you goes to the Foundation committee who did all the behind-the-scenes details.  Thank you to the Tri-C American Legion for use of their building.
Anyone associated with Jefferson C-123 who read this, feel free to comment.
