Shiner’s Grand Celebration Draws Thousands For Parade
Shiner’s big celebration drew over three thousand visitors on May 5 with clear weather by the morning. A procession formed on Patten block featuring the Shiner Firemen band, floats from Woodmen of the World, Hermann Sons and local merchants. Parade tours from Yoakum, Halletsville, Flatonia and other towns filled the streets before a park gathering with prize fire runs and speeches led by Mr. Sam Schwartz.
