Celebrating 75 Years in Webster Groves


4/15


Parade Route

The parade travels along a two-mile route through the streets of

Webster Groves and draws a crowd

of thousands of spectators with more

than 80 units. See map below.

The parade begins at Lockwood

and Selma and travels west onLockwood. It turns south on South

Gore and travels down Gore to Big

Bend. It then turns east on Big Bend

and turns one last time south on Elm

Avenue. The parade ends at MemorialPark (at the intersection of Elm Avenue

and Glendale Road).

Marshals

Educators from the WebsterGroves School District who promote

creativity in our youth through music,

art, drama and exploration will be the

Grand Marshals in this years parade.

Special thanks to Sarah BoothRiss, Superintendent of Schools

at the Webster Groves School

District, for her help in coordinating

this group. In addition, volunteers

from Webster Groves MasonicTemple will serve as ParadeMarshals again this year, lining up

units, enforcing security measures

and securing the course.

Parade JudgesJudges for the parade are:

Ginger Fletcher Krueger

is Managing Director of the

Webster Groves Art & Air Fair --

the artists art fair that just celebrated

its 10th anniversary. The juried fair,held the rst week of June every year,

continues to attract quality artists in

every category.

Baker Symes is an acclaimedmusician with three bands that often

perform in Webster Groves: Ticket

to the Beatles, Musyc, and Baker

Songs for Children. He also worksat Centerpoint adolescent outpatient

program as a licensed professional

counselor.

Steve Woolfhas been the Artistic

Director of the Repertory Theatre of St.Louis for over 25 years. The Rep is in

its 47th season with comedy, drama,

mystery, music and more!

Judges have the honor of selecting

parade units to receive awards in thevarious categories listed below. Units

should include adequate signage to

be considered for awards, which will

be given at the July 16th City Council

meeting.

Parade Awards

For each category there will be a rst

place (Best) and an honorable mention

(Outstanding) winner awarded. The

categories are as follows: Childrens

Entry, Civic Entry, Classic Entry,Commercial Entry, Neighborhood

Entry, Performing Entry, Best Theme,

Visiting Entry and Novelty Unit and

Special Judges Awards (three awardsfor deserving units that impress the

judges for various reasons.)

Safety

Of course, safety is of paramount

importance, but parades are inherentlyrisky, so its important that parade

participants and spectators do all they

can to help. The parade of over 80

units travels along a two-mile route

through the streets of Webster Grovesand draws spectators numbering in

the tens of thousands.With regard to parade units, several

safety measures are in place and

enforcement will be without exception.

Each sizeable motorized unit will have

wheel walkers, whose job it is to keepthe path clear in front and on the sides

of the unit.Parade participants will not be

allowed to throw candy or other items

from a moving unit; however, they

may have walkers (separate from the

wheel walkers) who will hand the itemsto spectators on the sidewalks. There

will be no throwing of water balloons or

large super soakers allowed from any

parade unit or spectators.

Along the parade route, parents andadults should keep close track of their

children and ensure that they are not

endangering themselves by running in

front of a parade vehicle to get a piece

of candy or trinket. Remain on the curb

or behind it. Safety is everyones job.Please help by doing what you can.

Ask a dozen adults what the highlight

of the Webster Groves annual July 4

Celebration is, and you will get a dozen

different answers: the reworks, the pa-rade, the barbecue, the entertainment,

seeing friends and neighbors, and so

forth. But ask a dozen children and

teenagers about Community Days/July

4 celebration in Webster Groves and

the answer will always be the same:

the carnival rides are the very best!For the 88th consecutive year, the

Lions Club of Webster Groves will hold

its annual summer-time Carnival and

Barbecue. This tradition serves, rstand foremost, as an opportunity forfamilies, friends and neighbors in the

community to come together in a safe,

pleasant and patriotic setting. Since1926, the Webster Groves Lions Club

has relied on its annual Carnival and

Barbecue as the groups primary fund-raising event of the year.

Bring Old Eyeglasses and Used

Sunglasses To The Fairgrounds

An ongoing project of the WebsterLions and other Lions Clubs is the col-

lection of old eyeglasses and used sun-

glasses for recycling and for reuse by

people in Central and South America.In the midst of having fun and enjoy-ing the July 4 Fairgrounds, everyone is

urged to bring and to donate old eye-

glasses and used sunglasses at the

Lions Club Booth in the Fairgrounds

midway. These donated glasses will be

recycled and become a Gift of Sightto needy people in other countries.

Lots of Rides and Food

This year promises to be one of thebiggest and best July 4 events ever in

Webster Groves! The Fairgrounds will

be lled with more than a dozen color-

ful, fun and classic amusement ridesprovided by PBJ Happee Days Shows,Inc., one of the nest companies of itskind. The huge Lions Club Foods Tent

will once again be one of the most pop-ular places in town for all four days asa place to meet and, of course, to eat.As always, Lions Club members will be

grilling and serving a wide variety of

freshly-prepared and reasonably-priced

food such as full slabs of ribs, half slabs

of ribs, pork steaks, chicken, rib tips, ribeye steaks, bratwursts, hamburgers,

hot dogs, baked potatoes, corn on thecob, baked beans, and more.

Outstanding

Community Involvement

The Lions Club of Webster Groves

is involved all year long in the planningand organizing of Websters Annual

Community Days/July 4th Celebration.

This dedicated effort by the Lions Club

began in 1960 when Webster Lionsmoved its 34-year-running summer-

time carnival and barbecue from Labor

Day to July 4 as part of a then-new lo-cal event called Webster Groves Com-

munity Days. The subsequent 53-year

partnership between the Lions Cluband Websters overall July 4 festivi-

ties has been a very special and veryunique collaboration for the community

and for people from all parts of the met-ropolitan region.

Hundreds of Volunteers

In order for the Webster Lions July

4 Carnival and Barbecue to occur,

members of the Lions Club and their

families and friends sacrice theirpersonal holiday fun to work virtuallynon-stop for a full week on the Fair-grounds. From the time set-up beginsuntil clean-up is concluded, more than6,000 volunteer hours are expended byLions Club members and many other

volunteers. Everything on July 4 Fair-

grounds is coordinated and supervisedby members of the Webster Groves Li-

ons Club. The overall chairperson forthe Webster Lions 2013 July 4 Carni-

val and Barbecue is Teddi Speeler. TheWebster Lions donate substantial fund-

ing toward the spectacular reworksdisplay on July 4. The Lions Club alsocommits signicant nancial support tothe reconditioning and restoration of

the Lions Athletic Fields following the

July 4 Carnival and Barbecue.

Memorable and Safe

July 4 Holiday

The annual Webster Lions July 4

Carnival and Barbecue involves a con-

siderable commitment to the communi-

ty on the part of the Lions Club. Safetyis always a foremost concern. Severalyears ago, for example, the WebsterLions spent $17,000 to upgrade theelectrical system that serves the July

4 Fairgrounds site. The July 4 Carnival

and Barbecue is the single largest proj-ect of the year for the Webster Groves

Lions Club. Depending on the weather,the nancial results are better some

years than others. Year in and year out,the Lions Club works tirelessly to make

the Community Days/July 4 festivities

in Webster Groves a safe and memo-

rable celebration for all!
