Scandinavian Festival Report


It's been at least 12 years since the Sanpete Democrats have been as active as they were for the Scandinavian Festival in Ephraim on Friday and Saturday. We had the best float in the parade: a pontoon boat festooned with about everything red, white, and blue imaginable. We went through 40 lbs. of candy and ran out two blocks before the parade ended so we threw out the last of our bottled water supply. Our booth looked great and attracted many people over the two days it was up--and sometimes down because of wind but not for long.

Participating were three democrats for Sanpete county offices, me for District 68, Christian for Congress, and Pete for the Senate. Not to be out done, John Jacob and Chris Cannon were there too--no floats--and they looked scared as they peered out from
their booths and then went home early. We stayed till the end.
