Well, this PR director of Care-A-Van can truly say she enjoyed the parade tonight. Reports have it that she did much better passing out candy, than she did videotaping their last parade event here in Batavia. Just a few pics to share of tonight's parade.

The Parking lot was a very busy place

I could not make it to the parade... but we're going to check out all the 4-h displays and animals. The 4-h clubs and individuals work so hard... I saw a lot of pick-up trucks leaving the fairgrounds early this morning(just after 7am) after already taking care of the livestock. I know many kids sleep overnight near their cows/cattle. Nice pictures, thanks for sharing.
