A bucking mechanical donkey provides for a hilarious ride in the parade.

John Liberg announces the floats as wife Ellen enjoys the show.

Lois Petesch, left, and Pauline Zigler, right, have some laughs and tasty beef sandwiches at the American Legion Beef Roast at the Hanover VFW.

And they’re off! Cousins Dale and Will Hoff lead the canoe race on the Apple River, taking after their fathers Bill and David who’ve passed the canoe racing torch down to their sons. Dale and Will took first place and made an all time record of 10.48 minutes, beating the last record by one and a half minutes.

Mackenna Sullivan shares a ride in the parade with 'Sully' the calf on the Sullivan Foods of Savanna float.

Waiting for the best part of the parade--more candy!

Ice cream for everybody! After standing in the sun to cheer on the parade, the crowd ducks into the shade at White Park where UnionBank sponsors the Ice Cream Social.

Celebrating the freedom to run and play and act our age.
