It’s fair time: Enter the parade, enjoy the band, watch a movie

By Chandra Dunbar

I am excited to announce that the Chamber is making some great plans for the upcoming Osage County Fair. We have a lot of fun things planned and I can’t wait to see you all there.

On June 30th the Osage City Chamber of Commerce will be hosting the 2016 Fair Parade. The theme is “Remember When”. This year we will be celebrating days gone by and the great traditions of our community. Parade time is 6:30 pm. I would like to see a lot of you involved. Get together with your church, your coworkers, your civic group, your sports team or just as a family and sign up to be a part of the parade. You can contact Chandra Dunbar at chandunbar@gmail.com for a parade registration form.

Just prior to the parade we will have a kiddie parade. Kids will line up and parade down Market starting at 6:15 pm. They can ride their bikes, walk, come in costume or whatever they would like. More details will be coming soon on the kiddie parade.

On Friday, July 1st the Chamber will sponsor the Chamber night at the fair. The 35th Infantry Division Rock Band will be playing from 7:30 pm-9 pm. They are a great group that are sure to be entertaining. From 8:30-9:30 pm several local businesses will be hosting some fun family events as we prepare for the last event of the evening. Join us at about 9:30 pm for a free outdoor showing of the great classic summertime baseball movie, “The Sandlot”. Bring your chairs and blankets for a movie under the stars. All Friday night events will take place between the new 4H buildings and the football field.

We can’t wait to see you there!
