This odd looking duo were all dressed up for Brussels Creature Feature Day last Thursday. Students paraded in
costume downtown and the Brussels Public School band entertained onlookers. Creature Feature day was just
one of the events enjoyed by students during Education Week.

BY ISABEL JANES
On April 28, Legion members
and members of the Brussels Pipe
Band left Brussels for Standish,
Michigan to participate in the
Loyalty Day Parade and to renew
friendships with the people of our
Sister City.
Following the parade on Satur
day both the American Legion and
the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post
extended their hospitality to the
Brussels visitors. At the banquet
on Saturday evening presentations
were made to President Eugene
Janes. The American Legion pre
sented a duplicate plaque of the
one they had presented to our
branch in 1986 which was lost in
the fire. The V.F.W. Post present
ed a new American flag, also to
replace the one lost in the fire.
There are a few other articles which
were destroyed at that time which
the American Legion is trying to
replace for us.
There was a dance after the
banquet with a live band which was
enjoyed by all. The Brussels Pipe
Band gave a mini-concert part way
through the evening for which they
received a standing ovation.
Sunday, at noon, the American
Legion put on a lunch for their
departing guests and after a short
visit it was time to leave our Sister
City and depart for home. We will,
however, soon be able to return
their hospitality as some of the
members of the American Legion
and V.F.W. Post are coming to
Brussels in both July and August.
Let’s show them the same great
hospitality that they showed to us.
