Strasburg Hometown Days (2019)

August 10, 2019 by Alan Leave a Comment

Cub Scouts Troop 439 float

Although it’s a little deep into the celebrations to begin a running Strasburg Hometown Days post…better late than never, right?! Updates will be added on top (right under this introductory paragraph).

Fifth Update

Alas, it’s a wet, stormy end to the weekend. This is a picture of what, at that the time of my riding my bicycle back from Byers, was coming our way:

Storm clouds

Kudos to everyone involved for putting on such an awesome 2019 Strasburg Hometown Days!

Fourth Update

Mud volleyball anyone?!

Although I am not sure all the participants fully accepted the nature of the contest :-), it’s still a fun video to watch. Three of the times player did embrace it are included in slow-mo…

Third Update

Still time to sneak over and grab breakfast at the elementary school!

(And the Hometown Days t-shirts are a steal now!)

Breakfast!

In the spirit of full disclosure, the water shows this is my wife’s, not mine. 🙂

Second Update

Okay, maybe > 40 minutes is too much to spare to watch the parade. How about less than 5? 🙂

Yes, it’s a bit choppy…but still kind to your time. 🙂

Marching Saints” by Eric Bolvin and “Marching to Victory” by Judson Lee. Both tracks from Storyblocks Audio (https://audioblocks.com).

First Update

I may put up more of the concert, but for now…the last song before the intermission during the Chili Cook-Off and Watermelon Feed:

I didn’t partake of the chili, but I did enjoy the Golden Eagle Concert Band’s performance. However, as the sun goes down here in our wonderful town, I think I am going to switch into vegetate mode. 🙂

Don’t forget the Pancake Breakfast at the high school starting at 7:30 tomorrow morning, followed by:

  • 9:30 AM – Mud Volleyball Tournament at North Baseball Field
  • 10:00 AM – Community Church Service at Lyons Park
  • And more!

Original Entry

Our first entry is this morning’s parade. Thanks to Adobe Premiere Rush, I’ve taken the hour and half-ish parade and brought it down under 45 minutes. No, I didn’t zap floats/etc. Instead, well, let’s just say there were a lot of “wait for the next section of the parade.” 🙂

Great work to everyone who participated!

Oh, and before I go…a link to the schedule of activities on the Strasburg Parks and Recreation District site.
