Friedsburg celebrates anniversary
German biker - Michael Miller lets the audience know what he
thinks about Friedsburg Days.
r
DASHWOOD - Dark
clouds and cool weather did
not stop hundreds of people
from enjoying this past
weekend's 20th annual Dash-
wood Friedsburg Days.
The weekend kicked off
Friday evening with a dance
at the pavilion, and was fol-
lowed by Saturday's endless
line activities. One of the ar-
eas longest parades started
off the second day of events.
The theme, Remember When
... enticed many Dashwood
residents and local business-
es to create imaginative
floats.
Following the parade, an
afternoon at the Dashwood
pavilion consisted of the
crowning of Miss Frieds-
burg, the introduction of for-
mer winners who had re-
turned to celebrate the
anniversary, mini -tractor
pull, children's sing -a -long,
body painting contest, arm
wrestling, and the traditional
Rhine Danube Dancers from
Leamington demonstrating
the German heritage.
Chosen few - Winners of the 20th annual Miss Friedsburg contest include: First runner-up Melanie
Rader, sponsored by Merner's Meats; Miss Friedsburg Becci Farquhar, sponsored by Becker Farm
Equipment; and Second runner-up Carli Tiernan, sponsored by McCann Redi Mix. -
