Big Time Graduation Parade
Saturday May 9 2020
    High noon on Saturday May 9th, Clayberry brought nothing but bright blue skies and beautiful sunshine. But, the look was deceiving. It was down right chilly, a day for at least a heavy sweater or jacket and gloves. None the less. the celebration for graduating seniors via a downtown Clay parade, it was a huge success. The parade went a full 20 minutes from start to finish. There was everything from log trucks, to side by sides, Badge-mobiles, fire trucks and a few nicely done up, antique cars and trucks. Each vehicles carried Clay High graduating seniors, graduating 8th graders from the Middle School and 5th graders from elementary schools around the county.
  Along the way, parents, friends, and others lined Main  Street. The place was full of smiles. In the way of social distancing there was next to none. Other than a couple parade participants and maybe a couple others on sidewalks, social distancing was none existent.
































There is Black Shirt Hallie Morris driving her on cruiser.
Even most members of the School Board were along for the ride. There they are setting the example for the entire county by not wearing face masks
Ever wonder who has been putting together all the events like the Senior's parade. The above image shows the most active members of the Deliciously Vivid committee. In the bed of the truck are Cindy Mullins seated and Mayor Josh Shamblin standing. Up front is the main ring leader in the passenger seat, Vanessa Dunigan. Not a member of the group but certainly drug into service is Tommy Dunigan driving the Chevy.
