Kids' parade set for Aug. 9
     Omak Stampede Kids’ Parade will celebrate the 75th Stampede with a tribute to the future of the rodeo with this year’s theme, “Rodeo Dreams.”
     Participants will check in at 8 a.m. at Civic League Park. Judging begins at 9 a.m. Entries with horses must provide their own pooper-scoopers, according to organizers.
     The parade will start at 10 a.m. at Civic League Park, moves north on Ash, turns right at Apple, south on Main Street, west on Second and ends up back at the park.
     Organizers ask that entrants pre-register by Friday, Aug. 8, so enough goodie bags are available. Registration forms are available at Sister’s, Grandma’s Attic or www.omakstampede.org.
     More information is available at 422-1878 or cjmcdonald@techfarmers.com.
