Pufferbilly Parade Fee

BOONE, Iowa---Entrants for the 2010 Pufferbilly Days Parade are being asked to pay a $10 entry fee that will be used to help cover some of the costs of high school bands. Janet Schultz, Parade Chair says the celebration has given the schools $50 and she says that doesn't cover much anymore. Over the past couple of years, the number of bands participating have declined because of the increased costs to school districts. So far, 7-bands are entered this year. The deadline to submit a parade entry has been extended to Friday, August 20th.
