ANOTHER DAY FOR MAIFEST!
A combined force of fictional law enforcement officers and private detectives went on the search for the ‘Missing Maypole’ at last (Friday) night’s Junior Maifest Coronation at the Fireman’s Park baseball field. This was in honor of the Junior Queen Piper Puckett and Junior King Jackson Edward Van Dyke, who reigned over the Court of Maifest Mysteries.’ That was the conclusion of a jubilant day on the Maifest grounds Friday. Others dance and sang along with the Anthony Moreno Band and then Cory Morrow at the park. The 124th Annual Celebration of Brenham’s German Heritage. Maifest President Heather Thielemann says once again they have combined the Junior and Senior Parades today. At 10:30am the parade with the junior court will join the senior court of Queen Caroline Webb and King Celeb Rodenbeck, to ride in the city’s traditional parade route. Thielemann says this gives a chance for everyone to take part in the Maifest parade.
