“THERE’S ENOUGH CANDY AT THE EVENT TO KEEP THE DENTISTS BUSY, I’M SURE!” – TYLER TORDSEN
The now two-day event will celebrate its 43rd year this summer, kicking off the smalltown charm on July 3 with a Cruise Night on Main Street, a Little Miss Pageant at The Bandshell in Westerman Park , and a street dance with live music until 1 a.m. “Some of the past street dance musicians have included Judd Hoos , Dustin Evans , The Dweebs , Johnny Holm , and Weston Frank ,” said Machmuller. Independence Day follows suit with a Firecracker Run at the high school, followed by the main event—the parade. Candy flies through the sky from patriotic floats as kids dive to collect the sweets, and tiny flags wave from lawn chairs and packed crowds.
