In preparation for the 25th Uffda Day, volunteer workers started early to roll out 2,500 pieces of lefse to sell in packages of three – or to be consumed at the Hall community dinner. As usual, more lefse was made for those who wanted it hot off the grill at the Rutland Senior Center where they could also get their freshly made rommegrot while being entertained by the musicians throughout the day.

The parade had several new entries including an old fashioned bicycle and a bubble blowing sprayer that had the kids sticking out their tongues to catch the bubbles. The Sargent County Envirothon team float tossed candy to the waiting kids. Other activities included a pudding eating contest for the kids and a blindfolded cupcake walk that was also a hit this year.
