2009 Cairo Cornstalk Festival - A big success!

This years Cairo Ne. Cornstalk Festival was another big success, thanks to the participants, volunteers and those who work all year on the Cornstalk Committee to pull off such a fun weekend.

I was again honored to be asked back to announce the parade.

The parade featured all the small town staples including floats, firetrucks, horses, American Legion, scouts, a moving National Anthem by a nine year old, the grand marshal, the mayor, and Cornstalk Queen, 4-H'ers, ATVs', old tractors and antique cars. Even local pilots flying over dropping prize winning marshmallows (yea, that's right!).

That was followed by fun and food in the park as well as the car show and famous cardboard boat races and pedal tractor pull. What a fun weekend. I always love going back to... "Cairo - Where Everyone Knows Your Name"!
