For those of you list lovers out there, here is the best list I could construct from looking at past Woodlake. Rodeo Programs. While I don't know the criteria for picking Grand Marshals, I do know these people were active community members. If you know something about them, have additional names, or have pictures you would like to share me to scan and share publicly as well as using in future books about Woodlake, please contact me at tchistorygal@gmail.com.
These names may give you more ideas of someone you would consider nominating for a Woodlake Award. Awards are due by January 31, 2016 at mindnight.
