Back to Main 4th of July 2011 Page
So after the fun run was over, I went up to Bean Town and met Chamber president Matt Krantz and Board member Allyn Colbert and we decorated the Chamber’s entry in the parade. I was a little late getting to the Woman’s Club Open House, so the crowds had slimmed out some, but I still took a few pictures at the Clubhouse, as well as some of the entries before the parade had started. Enjoy, click to enlarge.
