ST. ANTHONY – A 90-year tradition in St. Anthony made a rousing comeback Saturday as thousands attended the Pioneer Day celebration.
After last year’s event was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Volunteer Parade Coordinator Mari Ann Birch wanted this year’s parade to be the best one ever.
“After COVID, we need it,” Birch tells EastIdahoNews.com.
The exact amount of people who attended isn’t clear, but organizers were anticipating a crowd of at least 20,000 throughout the day.
Former mayor and city councilman Neils Thueson served as the parade marshal for this year’s event. He explains the significance of Pioneer Day and why it’s celebrated in eastern Idaho.
