Eddyville Founders’ Day

Saturday (August 27, 2022) @ 10:00 a.m. – Meet at the Eddyville First Baptist Church. Prepare your float and have all riders board the float at this time. Proceed to the Lyon County School parking lot and line up per instructions from Parade Coordinators, Mike Oliver and EPD Chief Brooks Dixon. No support vehicles will be allowed at the school due to limited space. If you need to drop off a rider/participant, please do so from Fairview Avenue but do not enter the school parking lot. There will be someone at Eddyville First Baptist as well to assist with getting the parade participants ready to go to school parking lot for line up.
