Just before the start of the 146th Arkansas Valley Fair Parade, Grand Marshals Larry and Donna Abert gave an interview to Seco News, aired on Facebook. Living in Rocky Ford their entire lives, the Aberts are well-known in the community. They expressed their love for the togetherness the event creates and the excitement it brings. They particularly enjoy the music played by the bands during the parade.
Following a tradition started in the previous year's fair, the interview gave viewers a chance to understand more about the experiences and responsibilities of the Grand Marshals. Larry Abert's involvement with the fair board during the 1970s has increased their standing in the community. This, along with their ongoing commitment to Arkansas Valley, led to their selection as this year's Grand Marshals. The Swink Family, longtime parade participants, were also interviewed in preparation for the upcoming event.
