The Antwerp Chamber of Commerce is busy making plans for their Annual Day in the Park festival on August 1st. The theme of the day is Survivor. The day will begin with a parade starting at 10:00 at the Antwerp High School. It will travel down Main Street for judging, proceed past the Riverside Park and end back at the school. The Park festivities will begin at 11:00 with the National Anthem, a welcome by Antwerp\u2019s Mayor Ray Delong, followed by a flag recognition and retirement ceremony by the local VFW Post #5087 and the Antwerp Boy Scouts Troop #143. Introduction and appreciation of the GEM of Antwerp will be made at this time along with the presentation of the travelling trophy to the best float from the parade. There will be a wide variety of craft vendors, food vendors, as well as games for the young ones. Entertainment will be provided by the Wannabees. They will be playing from 12:00-3:00. We also can\u2019t forget, back by popular demand, the cutie pie contest- which supports the scholarship fund, along silent auction items and new this year a Sweet 16 Contest provided by Memories by Tawnya. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
