Sesquicentennial Celebration

On August 23,1997 the Kendalia community celebrated "150 Years of Good Living" with a sesquicentennial parade and celebration. We have tried to capture the spirit and events of that day from the available information.

We have taken the photographs that are available in the library in a scrap book assembled by Donna Jonas and created a slide show of the parade and celabration events. To watch this photo slide show just click on the link below and wait for it to open. Be patient, it may be slow to open since it has a lot of photos.
