Beautiful weather and imaginative decorations thrilled the enthusiastic crowd at the Findley Lake Boat Parade on July 4th. With a theme of College Football, the rivalry was intense. Eight motorboats and six pontoon boats went head to head, striving to win the peoples choice Grand Prize. When the over 150 votes were counted, the overwhelming win for the Crum Family's "Wossamotta U" pontoon boat returned the traveling Breter Cup Trophy to them for another year.
The five judges for the Motor and Pontoon Boat divisions did not let offers of candy or other favors intrude on their serious deliberations. First Place in the Motor Boat division was awarded to Anderson Family, who decked out their boat and themselves in a sea of red for OSU. Second place went to the Proctor/Kelleher Family decorated as the ever-popular Notre Dame. In the Pontoon Boat division, First Place went to the Schneider Family who were Penn State Proud. Second Place went to the Jusiak Family saluting the University of Findley Lake. Many participants stopped by the judging tent to thank the Findley Lake Community Foundation for organizing this year's event.
