History Of Three
Great Festivals
Studded by Stars

The third annual Grape Festl
val and Fair will open Frida.
noon with a spectacular parad,
of floats and exhibits, under thu
/ direction of parade chairman
Howard Beste.
Although it will be referred te
as the third of the recent day
celebrations of the prosperou:
grape growing industry in the
kennewick area, it will actually
- as its two predecessors have
done - trace its origin back to
an earlier day, when the Kenne-
wick Grape Festival first made
its appearance.
In 1910 and 1911, the idea OF
marking the end of bountiful
harvest season with the celebra-
ton OF the community,s most col
orful crop, had already taken root
in Kennewick.
For years the fall festivals, out
standing in their time and place,
continued. They were discontin-
ued, as old timers remember it, in
1919, the year of a disastrous win
ter freeze.
Plans Tor the revival of the old
grape festival began early in the
year of 1916, when citizens gath
cred at the Roxy Theatre to dis
cuss ways and means of produc-
ing a show that would put Ken
newick on the map"
Clyde J. Anderson, manager of
Kennewick theatres for the Mid
state Amusement corporation, was
elected as president of the ambi-
tious event. E. S. Black was vice
president. Serving as members
of the board of directors were
John Neuman, Kenneth E. Serier,
Don Solberg, Mrs. Don Skirving,
Al Birmingham and Hal Clark.
Miss Margaret Reymore was
secretary and Mrs. Herbert Mis-
ner was treasurer.
Under the direction Of Marjorie
Wilson, chairman Of ticket sales,
colorfully costumed caravans Of
ticket sellers visited the surround
ing cities.
Harold higgins was in charge
of stock sales.
AS the show formal was de.
veloped, advertising and publicity
began to tell the story Of "three
great days" in Kennewick - Oc-
tober 3, 4, and 5. Three new Fords
were offered as door prizes. Pre-
miums and prizes for winning
parade and fair entries were
among the highest offered In the
state.
