Kids parade marches through town
Blue Mountain Eagle
JOHN DAY — For a few
minutes on Friday, the kids
took over Main Street.
In wagons, on bikes and
tricyles, by foot and on
horse, the kids — some in
costume — accompanied
by a few adults, made their
way through town during
the annual kids parade.
They started at St. Eliz-
abeth Catholic Church,
traveled four blocks down
South Canyon Boulevard,
along Southwest Dayton
Street and up East Main to
the Sterling Savings Bank
parking lot. Several people
stopped on the sidewalk to
watch.
Many entries reflected
the parade’s theme, “Blue

Vernon; and Brooke Burril, 1, of Prairie City.
Jeans and Country Dreams,”
with blue jeans prominently
displayed on carts, wagons
and even on a horse or two.
Kids and
parents took
to the streets
Friday during
the annual
kids parade.
