    How about a brand newMain Street, 100 units, twobands and a flag corps, afriendly float competition,lots of candy, belly danc-ers and two grand mar-shals in longtime residentsand business owners Jerryand Andrea Throndset?Thats the 2013 SummerfestGrand Parade, which will

    win d thr oug h Lak efi eldSaturday, June 22, startingat 2 p.m. sharp.

    Lineup for the Sum-merfest Parade starts at

    12:30 p.m. that Saturday,said Dory Poppe, co-coor-

    Grand parade shaping up to be grandest yetdinator of the event, along

    with Mary Koob and MaryPrestin. The parade willstart to form up at Pleas-antview Elementary School,

    where volunteers from theLakefield Lions Club willagain be helping out withthat. Most of the units inthe parade will line up alongBroadway from near theelementary school on up toits intersection with MainStreet. The bands will beforming up on the sidestreets and will be readyto join the parade proces-sion when it is their turn todo so.

    The 2013 SummerfestGrand Parade theme isFavorite Pastimes, andany float can be based onthat theme.

    We originally had a

    deadline for parade entriesof May 1, but extended it to

    June 1, she said. We canaccept late entries, too, aslong as they stick with ourtheme this year.

    Ag ai n fo r th is ye ar sgrand parade, competitioncould be fierce in the floatcontest as all three cat-egories neighborhoods,nonprofit groups and busi-nesses vie for the prizesof $75 for first place, $50for second place and $25 forthird place in each category.But the real plum in thecompetition will be the floatthat receives the greatestpoint total from the judgesand takes home the grandprize, which again this yearis a $200 block party for upto 50 of the winners guests.

    Last year, the neighbor-hood that won the grandprize invited 50 people from

    their neighborhood to theparty, which was held at

    Poppes Pumpkin Patch,Poppe said. For the con-

    venience of all attending,Poppes Pumpkin Patch

    will again host the party outthere for the overall win-ning float and their guests.

    The judging of the floatsin the Summerfest GrandParade will take place asthe floats travel along theparade route on Lakefieldsnew Main Street. There willbe three sets of judges de-termining the nine winnerschecking for originality inthe floats, use of color, as

    wells as adherence to t hisyea rs them e. A tota l of20 points is assigned eachcategory, but the overallgrand prize winner in thefloat competition will bedetermined by the Summer-fest Parade Committee asthe evaluation sheets withpoint totals on them are

    handed over to the commit-tee, Poppe said.

    The marching bands forthis years Summerfest pa-rade include Fuldas HighSchool Band that will bereturning once again andthe JCC (Jackson CountyCentral) High School Bandthat will be back, plus theSSC (Southwest Star Con-cept) Flag Corps that will bemarching and performing,Poppe said.

    This years parade routewill follow the route thathas been established forthe grand parade over thepast many years. It will endat Colonial Manor NursingHome in north Lakefield,

    where those participants inthe parade will be treated toa cold soda under the tentset up there.

    Meeting on MainA tradition five years in the making, the annual Lakefield community photo will have a slightly different lookthis year, as a brand new Main Street will serve as its background. The photo will again be taken right in frontof the Lakefield Standard office on the Saturday of Summerfest immediately following the grand parade andfree watermelon feed sponsored by the Lakefield Standard. The full-color photo will literally wrap around theThursday, June 27, edition of the Lakefield Standard, with plenty of full-color photos from all of Summerfeston the inside backs. The Lakefield Standard community photo wrap was named Minnesotas best idea innewspapering in 2009 and remains a highlight of the year for Summerfest-goers and readers of Lakefieldscommunity newspaper.

    The difference is that in-stead of a taco shell, weput our toppings on friedbread that we make righton site. We have about sixfood items we sell. TheIndian-style tacos can be abeef taco, a bean taco or acombination beef and beantaco. We also sell a tacosalad, nachos supreme withcheese sauce, a plain nachos

    with cheese, plus a dessert fried bread we coat withbutter, cinnamon and asugar mix, then frosting

    that we call elephant ears.Koob said he is excited to

    bring all of the above to hishometown festival.

    We are pretty excitedabout coming to Summer-fest, Koob said. We weremostly booked up in June,but ironically had the Sat-urday of Summerfest open.Im looking forward to com-ing home and seeing a lot ofpeople I havent seen for along time with all the re-unions that happen duringSummerfest. I enjoy it that

    we meet about ever y kindof person when we are outthere on the road in thesedifferent towns. It is fun tobe able to take part in thedifferent towns festivals.People just seem to followus wherever we go.

    Koob travels mostly the

    same route his uncle es-tablished years ago, but it

    varies a little at times too.We make out first stop

    at Buffalo Days in Luvernein June, he said. Earlier

    than that in the year, andthe weather can be a bitiffy. Our last event of the

    year is Turkey Days herein Worthington, where welive.

    In between, Koob andFlesner take their PS IndianStyle Tacos to the Worthing-ton Wind Surfing Regat-ta; to the Aberdeen, S.D.,

    Arts in the Park and BrownCounty Fair; to Glenwoodon Lake Minnewaska; BoxElder days in Minneota;and a number of other townfestivals and craft showsduring the summer.

    Sue and I do the smallerfestivals ourselves, Koobsaid. The ones that are abit larger we usually haveSues son help out, so thereare three of us, and for thebig festivals we attend wehire local high school girlsto help us out.

    It wasnt long after Mar-less Cuperus, coordinatorof the Food for Kidz 5KWalk/Run, informed Sum-merfest head Dory Poppeshe would not be hostingthe event this year thatPoppe recalled DaniellePavelkos interest in host-ing a 5K event in supportof the American Cancer

    Societys Relay for Life dur-ing Lakefields communitycelebration.

    Accordingly, Pavelko hasorganized a Relay for LifeGlow 5K Walk/Run for theFriday evening of Summer-fest week.

    I was motivated to doa Relay for Life walk/runafter I was diagnosed withcancer three years ago,Pavelko said. My motiva-tion continues now with mysister battling cancer too.

    When Pavelko learnedthe Food for Kidz 5K event

    would not take place thisyear during Summer fest,she saw it as an opportunityto have a Relay for Life5K walk/run in support ofcancer research and theJackson County Relay forLife events too.

    We will hold it the Fridaynight of Summerfest, fol-lowing the LBA (LakefieldBusiness Association) Fam-ily Fun Night at North CityPark, Pavelko said. Regis-

    will start at 9 p.m.The Relay for Life Glow

    5K Walk/Run will followthe same route as the Foodfor Kidz 5K Walk/Run ofthe last two years, Pavelkonoted.

    thought it would be a goodopportunity to take it overand offer a 5K walk/run foranother great cause, she

    said. Rather than holdingour 5K this year in the sametimeframe as the one Foodfor Kidz held, we thoughthaving a glow-in-the-darkevent on Friday eveningmight make it more fun.We have received the cityof Lakefields OK to havethis glow-in-the-dark 5Kand they will be puttingarrows in glow-in-the-darkpaint marking the route onthe streets, but we will have

    When: Wednesday, June 19,6 p.m.

    by MIKE JORDAN

    Staff Writer

    When last years Sum-merfest Pageant chairper-son, Breann Runge, steppeddown from her positionearlier this year, DeanneHall stepped up to take onthe challenge of running thepageant this year.

    I have a 3-year-old son,

    Braxton, that I wanted tobe able to experience Sum-merfest like I did as a child,Hall said. So, when I heardthat the Summerfest Pag-eant needed a person tochair it, I decided to stepforward and volunteer to dothat this year. I feel every-one here should pitch in soSummerfest doesnt die outlike celebrations in othertowns have died.

    And Hall went right to

    work aft er volu ntee ring ,getting the information tothe schools regarding thisyears pageant so t he kidscould take that informa-tion home to their parentsearly on.

    The Summerfest Pageantis scheduled for Wednes-day, June 19, starting at 6p.m. in the Jackson CountyCentral Middle School gym.

    The Summerfest Pag-

    Hall steps forward to head upannual Summerfest Pageant

    Deanne Hall

    eant is open to all L akefieldgrade-school kids, Hallsaid. The Miss Lakefieldcandidates have to be girlsthat will be entering thefifth and sixth grades thisfall. The Lakefield Princesscandidates have to be girlsthat will be entering thethird and fourth grades thisfall. And for Junior MissLakefield, the girls have to

    be entering the first or sec-ond grade this fall.

    Those little girls andlittle boys wishing to becandidates for Little MissLakefield and Little Mr.Lakefield need to be kidswho will be entering kinder-garten this fall.

    In order to be a candi-date, the children must beregistered by a parent, musthave a Lakefield addressand must not have been apart of Summerfest royalty

    in the past.We are requiring

    our Lakefield Sum-merfest royalty beable to attend theLakefield Summer-fest Parade on June22, the Jackson pa-rade on June 29 and

    Okabenas Fourthof July parade onThursday, July 4, this year,Hall said. The winners inthe Summerfest Pageantwill receive a crown, a sashand a Summerfest T-shirt.All of the candidates willreceive a goodies bag forparticipating filled withitems donated by area busi-nesses for the event.

    Hall is planning to havethe middle school stagedecorated in accordance

    with this years Summer -fest main theme, Down onMain Street.

    Hall has already issuedeach contestant signed onfor the Summerfest Pageanta questionnaire that needsto be filled out before thepageant and returned toher.

    My mother, Diane, ishelping me with the pag-eant, Hall said. I will bethe emcee for it. I will bereading questions and theanswers from the sheetsthat were filled out beforethe pageant and given tome. But for the older girls, Iwill probably ask them somequestions that evening.

    The winners will be ran-

    domly chosen, as there willnot be an actual judgingof the candidates in thepageant.

    Id like to see at least 30kids involved each year inthe Summerfest Pageant,Hall said. Id like to seemore of them in each cat-egory. But I want to empha-size again that the winnersare randomly chosen andnot determined by any judg-ing. To participate, all theyhave to be is signed up.

    This years Summerfestcommunity worship ser-vice will be unlike any totake place on the Sundaymorning of Summerfestin recent memory.

    This year, Kent Mickel-son has assumed the coor-dination of the Sunday-morning service, as wellas the music, and plansare to make it more of anecumenical celebrationwith music the theme ofthe outreach this timearound.

    When Pastor (An-drew) Schensted of Beth-lehem Lutheran Churchcame here, he made itknow that missions wereimportant to him, Mick-elson said. When DoryPoppe said there was aneed for someone to lead

    the Summerfest commu-nity service, our churchthought it would be some-thing good for us to takeover; so we discussed itwith Pastor Schensted asto what we could do local-ly to involve all churchesin the service this year.

    That led Mickelsonto the idea of holding aCommunity of Faithconcert prior to a Com-munity of Faith service

    Summerfest community concert, worship serviceto feature local artists, speaker on Sunday morning

    Kent Mickelson

    the Sunday morning ofSummerfest.

    So, from 10 to 11 a.m.Sunday, June 23, we willbe presenting a Commu-nity of Faith concert, andso far, several people haveagreed to participate in it,Mickelson said. The con-cert will include Bill Brandtand Deb Rentschler; the

    Harmony Shots quartet ofTerry Wheeler, Rod Larson,Alan Salzwedel and myself;and a contemporary wor-ship team from our church,Bethlehem Lutheran, thatwill probably include Glo-ria Van Voorst, Scott andLinda Place, Sandra, Joseand Austin Nunez, as wellas Ron Hummel so far.

    Mickelson said those at-tending the concert willneed to do nothing but sitback and enjoy some goodChristian music; but thosewho want to bring their own

    lawn chair to the event foradded comfort can do soas well.

    The Community ofFaith concert and worshipservice will be held underthe big tent next to theLakefield library, he said.The concert will start at 10a.m. and go to 11 a.m. ThenPastor Andrew Schensted

    of our church will lead theCommunity of Faith wor-ship service and provide thedays sermon starting about11 a.m. and going until noonthat Sunday.

    Michelson is planning toput together a communitychoir for that church serviceas well, and is inviting any-one who would like to singin the choir to a rehearsalfor the Sunday morning ser-vice at Bethlehem LutheranChurch on Wednesday,June 19, at 7 p.m.

    Anyone that wants to

    sing in the choir can cometo the rehearsal and we willgo over the songs, he said.They will be simple, famil-iar songs we will be rehears-ing for the Sunday service.

    Most of the sing-ing will be accompa-nied by either Mick-elsons wife, Ardis,on the piano or theworship team.

    Lakefields Sum-merfest is a week-long fun event forour community,Micke lson sa id .
