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.
