Hundreds line Nelson streets to salute the LVR Class of 2013
For once it didn’t rain.
Nelsonites that didn’t get a chance to attend any or the L.V. Rogers High School Graduation functions during the weekend at the NDCC Arena got a chance to see the students front and center through the streets of Nelson at the annual Cavalcade.
Saturday afternoon, with a Nelson Police Department escort, grads hopped in the back of Convertibles, Jeeps, flat deck trucks and bicycles for the parade that celebrates excellence at LVR.
The week started with the LVR Talent show before the festivities moved to the NDCC Arena.
Friday, the crowd heard LVR Valedictorian Liam Long salute his classmates before scholarships from service groups and businesses were handed out to the Class of 2013.
Saturday afternoon was reserved for the Grand March before the grads jumped into their rides for the afternoon Cavalcade.
The Nelson Daily joined many along the parade route to snap a few pictures of the grads.
