Oldtimers' Day Thanks

Mayor Sherry Green emailed this note today that was sent to area newspapers: I -- on behalf of the Old Timers' Day 2006 committee -- want to thank everyone who participated in this year's event. To the sponsors, to the vendors, entertainers, those attending the day's events, All Start Audio, Pyro Shows (fireworks company), emcee John Forcinelli, city workers and others who made the day the most special one yet, the committee offers a large thank you! This year's weather was perfect and the festival was a great day for everyone involved. We've had nothing but compliments about the event. Congratulations to the parade winners: The La Vergne High School Band (Mayor's Cup), Kum Sung Family Martial Arts (Best Youth Entry), Larry Yatuzis (Best Equesterine entry), La Vergne Senior Citizens (Spirit of La Vergne), Al Menah Shriners (Best Vehicle entry), LHS Band (Best Musical entry). Thanks to the judges who picked these winners. Next year's event is set for Sept. 15, so start planning now to be there. Also, entertainment packages can be sent to Angie Mayes from Nov. 1, 2006 - Feb. 28, 2007. only. The address is 5093 Murfreesboro Road, La Vergne, 37086. Vendor applications will be accepted after January 1, 2007. Thanks again, Angie Mayes Coordinator Old Timers' Day 2006 City of La Vergne
