The Curwood Festival Heritage Parade Grand Marshal Committee and award sponsor Schluckebier Hood Wealth Management Group of Stifel are pleased to announce that Shaffer Fox of Owosso has been chosen as the Grand Marshal for the 2024 Curwood Festival Heritage Parade, which will take place on Saturday, June 8 in Owosso.
David Hood surprised Fox with the announcement at a Curwood Festival Board meeting on April 10th. He was selected from a large group of distinguished individuals (21 total nominations for 10 different people), with multiple nominators noting his love and dedication for Owosso, including serving as the community’s unofficial historian on many distinguished local leaders including James Oliver Curwood. Several also highlighted his recent efforts to lead the refurbishment of the Thomas E. Dewey historical marker, all of which was done in a volunteer capacity.
We thank everyone who submitted nominations and please understand that there can only be one Grand Marshal chosen each year.
Please continue to nominate those deserving people. Also special thanks to our secret panel of judges for their time and tough job of choosing a Grand Marshal!
