WOODVILLE, WI – Hey Woodville! This weekend, Saturday, July 27, and Sunday, July 28, 2024, was hot!
On Saturday, we (1st Princess Jessical Alber, 2nd Princess Addisyn Wichelman, 3rd Princess Adeline Haugen and I) all got together for a little bit and fixed up the Troll float that we would be taking on Sunday. We painted, restrung a few lights, and even built a tiny bridge!
Sunday, we took our newly renovated float down to Elmwood’s 45th Annual UFO Days Celebration, Grande Parade, it was “out of this world!” We got to meet some new courts (Sparkle Sisters) and talked to a few we don’t normally see.
It was a fun parade, and all our renovations paid off! We were placed as the 3rd Best float in the parade, and even won a cash prize! It was a great day to see Elmwood’s strong Village spirit!
