Parade grand marshal revealed
From Staff Reports MICHIGAN CITY - Mayor Chuck Oberlie announced Tuesday that Mike Pease is the grand marshal of the 2009 Summer Festival parade, which is Sunday, July 5. Pease has been chairman of the Summer Festival's Drum & Bugle Corps events since 1998. "Mike and his wife, Robin, have traveled to many places across the United States and Canada to witness Drum & Bugle Corps perform," Oberlie said in a press release. "We are fortunate to have his expertise here in Michigan City to manage all of the logistics needed to create the pageantry of our annual Drum & Bugle Corps Show. He has been rewarded for his effort by receiving the Drum Corp International Show of the Year Award in both 1999 and 2006." Oberlie also said Pease has been successful in arranging for visiting drum corps to participate in the Summer Festival Parade. The mayor added, "We are honored to help Mike complete his journey from marching as a baritone bugler with the Maple City Cadets of La Porte from 1969 through 1971 to now leading the parade as our grand marshal. ____________________________________________________ What a great honor for Mike! We marched together in The Maple City Cadets - so great to see his success with the MC Drum and Bugle corps show. Congrats, Mike! |
