May Day

Summer has officially begun for Mendon. On May 3rd, 2014, in Mendon, we celebrated May Day.

The May Day Queen and her Court enjoyed a good breakfast at the Mendon Square and then were seated in front of the May Day poles.

The Queen was crowned by the King and a few joyous songs followed. Then the May Day girls braided the ribbons of the May Day poles while singing songs to their Queen.

Afterwards, there was a short program where a speaker presented his thoughts on the importance of May Day, and then the Queen and her Court sang a beautiful song.

When the ceremony was finished, families enjoyed delicious burgers, hot dogs, and nachos from the Burger Stand as well as flavorful snow cones from the Snow Cone Shack. Then, after conversing with other families and hanging out at the park, everyone went home happy and tired after the day's activities.
