For What It's Worth From Melanie Oren
A reflective town column notes wetter weather since early spring with spotty rains lately and hopes for relief. Festival crowds filled Ellison Park with praise for parade coordinator Sauna Blacksher, while Lisa Hamby faces next year’s entries and prizes. A martial arts instructor’s parade stunt with Mikki Sain wowed the crowd, followed by a mishap near 8th Street. The writer recalls misidentifying a football player and ends with a candid aside about the day’s sports nerves.
