Saturday night the trucks staged a parade through the town and were wildly welcomed by enthusiastic crowds lining the streets. It didn't hurt that Miss Michigan was Parade Marshall in the lead vehicle.

Featured entertainer Joey Holiday put on terrific shows throughout the weekend from the stage of his USA-muraled trailer.
