Historical Reflections








As usual, a big parade was held in Grand Marais to mark July 4, 1968. Shown in this News-Herald photo are “pajama boys” Keith Jacobsen, Gary Dockan, Greg Eckel and Bruce Leonard. Other participants in the parade were the Camp Fire Girls, whose entry was voted “top prize,” 73 entrants in the “bike and trike” lineup, and of course – Old Glory, which was proudly carried by Eric Nelms and Richard Thompson.
