2008 Mill City Fourth of July Celebration

This year's theme is Canyon Pride and as usual the kick off event for the festivities is the Annual Queen's Coronation.  The Santiam High School Auditorium will be the location of the Coronation, Saturday June 28th, at 3:00 pm.  The 2008 Queen's court includes, Cilla Davidson, Taylor Gonzales and Teryn Thomas.  One of these lucky girls will be crowned Queen and will proudly reign over the rest of the events.  New to this year's coronation is a "Mr. Mill City" contest to be held during the time the judges' scores are tallied. 

Grand Marshal of this year's parade is Mrs. Josephine Reid, wife of the late Dr. John Reid.  The Reid's have a made Mill City home for well over 50 years and have a long history of giving generously to the community.
