PAT KESSLER QUEEN

queen of North San Juan’s Cherry Carnival Saturday

Trail Riders in their uniforms gave the event a wild
western flavor. Floats and decorated vehicles were a
notable: success. Cherries were abundant and handed
out to all comers in profusion.
People from far and wide, from Downieville,
Sierra County, on the north, to Grass Valley and Nevada City turned out in hundreds to attend the three
big dances, Friday, Saturday and Sunday night and to
see Sunday’s parade.
The North San Juan Chamber of Commerce,
which covers most of Highway 49, including Camptonville, Yuba County, and the Ridge towns of French
Corral and Sweetland, put a fine feather in its cap by
carrying out one of the most successful festivals of
the year.
