East Bethel Parade and Coronation

 On Saturday, July 20th, my Royal sisters and I had a great time up in East Bethel for the festival parade and coronation.  It was a bit of a drive for us but well worth it!  We made some great new royal friends in the parade line-up including the Big Lake Ambassadors, as well as seeing the familiar faces of New Brighton and Richfield. It’s always fun being in a parade, especially those like East Bethel when the people are enthusiastic and excited to see us. I loved when the crowd along the route would start dancing to the music blasting from our float like “YMCA” and “Party in the USA.”  After a quick lunch break at the local Subway, we headed over to the coronation that was being held at the East Bethel Ice Arena.  It’s always sad to say goodbye to friends from the Sparkle Section; however, I can’t wait to see the new East Bethel Royalty at future events.
