Rainier Round-Up Days Parade


My husband, George, told me that the Rainier Round-up Days Parade had 4 or 5 floats.  No big deal, right???  WRONG!!!  This was better then the Daffodil Parade.  This is Small Town America in ACTION!!!  I am still impressed with this parade & the small community of Rainier.

Rainier Round-Up Days Parade was fabulous!  Main Street was lined up with people for blocks - on both sides - several people deep to watch the parade!  The people who weren't in the parade, were watching it.  We had over 44 groups in the parade - including all of the football players & cheerleaders from Rainier Public Schools, a fire & logging truck.  There here dozens of motorbike & ATV riders!  

The photos below go from the start to the finish of the parade: 















































































































My grandson, Sean Thorning, wore the Rainier Lions Club mascot costume on the winning Bluegrass Pickin' Party Float.  Pat (our son) drove the red truck that hauled this float.
