Thousands throng to witness Centennial Parade Saturday
An estimated crowd of 20,000 were
packed in downtown Cottage Grove,
from two blocks west of the Pioneer
Bridge, down Main Street along the

which has been termed as the largest,
longest and most successful parade
ever to be held in town. Estimations
of the number of people in town were
made by state patrolmen.
Over 60 individual entries, many
consisting of several pieces, partici-
pated in the parade, which lasted ap-
proximately an hour. Entries consisted
of pioneer pieces such as stage coach-

veyance division of the Centennial
Parade was Tucker's covered wagon,

North “O” Street
water line
replacement
Last week, the City Utili-
ties Crew completed work
on the North “O” Street wa-
ter line replacement, between
West Main Street and Ash
Avenue. The Crew replaced
300 feet of six-inch cast iron
water line with eight-inch C-
900 PVC pipe. This had been
a dead-end line and, with the
completion of this project, the
water line is now looped. The
Crew also added several isola-
tion valves. This allows shorter
sections of the water line to be
shut-off if repairs are needed in
the future. The City said the re-
placement of this water line will
signifi cantly improve both wa-
ter quality and fi re fl ow in this
general area.
