Human flag to lead parade at reunion carnival
The Elks plan a large fourth of July spectacle featuring a floating platform with a staged human flag. Some 1000 children, ages six to twelve, will wear red white or blue capes forming stripes and stars while singing two patriotic songs. Volunteers and carpenters will build the platform under architect Lincoln Haire’s guidance, with rehearsals at the auditorium and one final practice on the stage.
