Record Earnings for Labor Day

The 87th Annual FIHS Labor Day Weekend Festival set a new record, with receipts of $22,590 topping the previous record of $21,915 set in 2001.

The theme for this year's parade was "All in a Day's Work". The grand prize was awarded to the Bower Family for their float, "Rome wasn't Built in a Day". Congratulations! The winners in each of the other categories are listed below.

To re-live the day, visit the photo gallery. Thanks to Jenny Fritz for providing the photos. If you have any pictures you'd like to share, let us know; we'd love to include them!
