7 July 2006...
Congressman Bob Goodlatte, Augusta County Supervisor David Beyeler, Delegate Ben Cline, and Delegate Chris Saxman joined in and walked the 2006 Stuarts Draft Firemens Festival Parade...
The Augusta County Republican Party float was assembled and supported by Scott & Rhonda Winfield, Courtland & Carter Winfield, Lynn Mitchell, Alex Davis, David Beyeler, and Sheila Jennings... The float was completed in the area in front of the Hollister plant for the short walk up to the Firehouse in Stuarts Draft after passing an impressive crowd that was lined up along the parade route...
Congressman Bob Goodlatte was greeted by many happy parade watchers along the route after making a visit to the Target Distribution center just down the road. He also stayed for dinner at the Firemen's Festival and met with many constituents afterwards...
Delegate Ben Cline walked the parade route and saw many of his constituents from nearby Sherando and South of Stuarts Draft...
Chris Saxman was glad to attend the parade where he has received strong support from the people of Stuarts Draft and the South River district...
Scott Winfield provided the truck to pull the float for the parade and had one of the "better" seats for the length of the parade...
The Winfield boys Carter & Courtland, ages 8 and 10, elected to ride the float during the parade and to take up the task of throwing candy to parade watchers along the parade route... This is a favorite practice and tradition to small parades and was enjoyed by many at this one also. But it was interesting that we ran a little short of candy towards the end of the parade...
