New Hope in UFO Parade!

I went to the UFO Parade downtown on Saturday and enjoyed it as always. What a nutty event! And while our church didn't have an official entry this year, I saw some New Hopers representing in the festivities!

Jeff and Jenny Pomeroy, who own a moving & storage company here in town, put their business on display here (sorry you can't see any faces in the shadows).
Curt and Karen Oldfield have been coming to our church now for exactly one year. How do I know? Because last year they saw our New Hope band in the UFO parade and decided they wanted to check us out (true story)! This year they dressed up their converted VW and towed their kids and some friends in a trailer!
Sonja Mullian wasn't exactly in the parade, but we saw her walk by several times as she patrolled the route. It looks like she's giving a ticket here, but she's actually helping some out-of-towners find the Pet Costume Contest that followed the parade.

It's always good to see folks from our fellowship involved in our community! Hopefully next year we'll be able to put an official New Hope entry in the parade again!
