I'm old enough:
- I went when it was still called the Cherry Carnival
- I did not like the name change and the movement behind it
- I rode on Osoyoos Hardware and Baldy floats, and walked in the kiddie parade
- I marched in the Osoyoos Elementary Junior Secondary School Band
- I was present when the packinghouse crew (plant where the Watermark is now) would vote on having 2 hour lunch so they could watch the parade, or keep on working.
- I watched the Fireworks many times - often from my boat floating on the far side of the lake
- After I sold the boat, I went a couple of times on foot. but the crowds were too much
- If you are up on the mountain tonight - you will hear the Osoyoos Fireworks off in the distance, and see some light.
