Monday's Kiwanis Ogeechee Fair parade was a polar opposite of last year: instead of rain and no parade, people strutted their stuff in what could not have been more perfect weather. Clear skies, moderate temperature and a general buzz of excitement filling the air gave a carnival atmosphere to the annual event. Statesboro Kiwanis Parade chairman Charles Sheets was grinning from ear to ear as he directed each unit to step off for the parade that meandered through downtown Statesboro.
