This was our best year yet, thanks to the efforts of many people. While I cannot possibly thank everyone who helped, a special thank you to Tom and Debbie Park for running the event, Bryan Greene, Kathleen Ritchie, our superstar emcee Captain Casey McManus, Troy Davis, Cristie Gilbert, Shonna Lerma, Mike and Michelle Walsh, Todd and Carly Oberg, and so many more!!
A big thank you to Bob Feil Boats & Motors for sponsoring this event and to Grant County Tourism for their grant, which helped us grow the event!
A boat parade is not a parade without boats. Thank you to all the boaters and their families who participated this year. Next year, we plan to have even more boats, so please spread the word; we have room for additional boats.
Lastly and most importantly, thank you to all the wonderful people in our community. A parade is meant to be experienced, and the hundreds of hours of effort would not be worth it if the community did not come to experience the boat parade and actively participate in it.
This is a uniquely Crescent Bar event that cannot be replicated anywhere else. The residents, guests, and visitors to Crescent Bar are the ones who make this such a special place. THANK YOU!
