The 2023 Gateway to the West parade was a great success. The Washington County Republican Party float was surrounded by voluteers for Senator Pete Ricketts, Senator Deb Fischer, State School board candidate Lisa Schonoff and others. Other important Republican offer holders participating in the parade included State Senator Ben Hansen, Washington County Sheriff Mike Robinson, Washington County Attorney Scott Vander Schaaf, Ft Calhoun Mayor Mitch Robinson, former State Senator Lydia Brasch. We had over 50 voluteers in the parade held Saturday, June 10, 2023. Thanks so much to all the volunteers who helped set up our float and walked in the parade.
