BIKE PARADE



Thanks Mason and Kendall for all your help in getting ready for the bike parade and coloring contest, and of course for leading us on the parade route!


Our first annual kiddie parade was a success and everyone had a wonderful time! The weather cooperated and our participants had their "floats" decorated in grand style! Thank you everyone for coming out and participating!!!


Thanks to all the vendors for cheering the parade on and partaking as well! We couldn't have done it without you!! Looking forward to a bigger and better parade next year!!






There were floats of all types, but they all showed off our patriotic spirit! Many thanks to La Ditzy for being a part of our parade as well! She certainly added some spirit of her own!








Our Shady Hollow mascot, Bruiser, (St. Bernard) even got in on the act!! Of course, he is loved wherever he goes, so the parade was held up on occasion!! After the parade I found him being hosed off at the water pit!! Not a bad idea Bruiser!!! Thanks for being a part of the parade!! Hope you got some cotton candy and treats!!

In 2006, I spent the month of June at Castaway Club (a Young Life camp property). (My husband was on YL staff.) Every time I drove to Detroit Lakes to make a WalMart run, or to feed a McDonald’s craving (I was 6 months pregnant), I drove by the sign for the flea market. I finally got to visit the flea market and I loved it! Such a variety of vendors and great finds!

I was wondering if you could give me the contact information of one vendor in particular? It was a smaller table, with a woman who made jewelry. I got her card and later ordered a silver necklace with my children’s names and birthdates hand stamped on silver disks. I treasure the necklace and wear it often.

I have friends who just lost their third baby. Tonight while visiting the mom admired my necklace. She would really like to order one of her own, however, I can’t seem to find the contact information for the jewelry designer.

I would appreciate any help you can offer!
