Echoes Participate In Akron 4th Of July Parade

AKRON - Members of the Echoes of the Past enjoyed participating in the Fourth of July parade in Akron.
The parade, lasting just under an hour, provided patrons with floats, classic cars, kids and, of course, tractors, according to a news release from Echoes of the Past.
Frank Meredith, club member, pulled the tram through the parade with his International 666.
Randy Runkel, sitting atop his International 856, had help driving the parade route with his grandson. The parade saw lots of grandpas riding with their grandson or granddaughter. Father and daughter took the wheel of an Allis Chalmer. Special tribute was given to former member Richard Harstine, who died this year, from the Parker family.
The club also participated in the Kosciusko County Fair parade Sunday. Tractors will be on display during fair week in the Antique Village at the fairgrounds in Warsaw.
