Flashback Friday: Parading Pets around Phillips Avenue
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) – We've been telling you about several different events over the month of June that'll get families out of the house and hitting the streets and parks all around Downtown Sioux Falls. Mitchell residents against Davison County prison site In this week's Flashback Friday, we're going all the way back to 1968 where Keloland's Bill Severtson shows us how a group of kids spent their summer Saturday morning parading their pets along Phillips Avenue. Some mighty unusual traffic moved the wrong way on a one way street in downtown Sioux falls this morning. The slow moving travelers included horses, dogs, cats, hamsters, a fox, and two geese, all in all about 75 assorted refugees from Noah's Ark. Accompanied by 100 young human type companions. It was the annual county pet parade sponsored by the Minnehaha County Sheriff's Office and the Sioux Empire Kennel Club. Trophies were awarded Sammy Brett of Sioux Falls for the best decorated float and Richard Mathiesen of Renner for the child with a pet coming the longest distance. And Laurie Blount most unusual pet, a very friendly gray fox. Ribbons were given for just about every category imaginable and everybody went home convinced that their pet was the best in the whole wide world. Bill Severtson, KELOLAND News.
