Boat Parade '08


The day was cloudy, rain and thunderstorms were predicted all day. But the planning had been done and Sylvia Lakers are a hardy bunch. The parade went off as planned. Voting for the best of categories was done at the community picnic. The Grand Marshal was Maybelle Pistolesi as it is only appropriate that her legacy to the SLA picnic be recognized. She and her husband, Mario, originated the Sylvia Lake Picnic in the 1980's.
