Rosie, former mayor in Polka Parade
Congratulations to the organizers and volunteers at this year’s Cedar Polka Fest! Omena’s former Mayor, Rosie Disch, had a lot of fun as the grand marshal at the Cedar Polka Fest Parade Saturday. Her driver, Matt Bresinski, was wonderful to her and made sure she had plenty of air conditioning in the heat. She wore her pink Dolly Parton cowboy hat, and the crowd loved it. Many thanks to Mary Clark and her daughter Susan Todd for convincing Rosie that she absolutely should wear it, and to Kanda McKee for replacing the elastic band with a much more comfortable ribbon. 08/28/2024 10:35 PM
