Nykkan Staten, age nine, said he loved attending the annual event because “it’s fun just to watch.” 

Jacquelin Olguin, age 12 and in town from Russellville to visit family, said she really enjoyed “the food and tea.”

Alex Pendergraft, age 11, summed it up nicely when she said she liked “all of it, the whole thing.”

The kiddos were not disappointed either as they, and parents too, could be seen watching the show intently. As the show concluded and guests headed back to their vehicles, more than one youngster could be heard saying, “That was so cool!” A top-notch endorsement if there ever was one.
