“We keep it dry”
It’s a Roberts Creek tradition. A member of the Roberts Creek Volunteer Fire Department offers candy to kids attending the Higgeldy Piggeldy parade Aug.10. The parade opens the community’s Creek Daze celebration, and the fire department trucks come at the end of the parade with candy; in the past candy has been thrown into the crowd from the trucks, but this year the kids were invited to politely choose their own. (The candy was carried in a “collapsible water bucket” the department is selling for $20 – a foldable fabric bag that can be taken to the beach and then used to scoop water from the ocean to put out your beach fire. Or it can be used to carry candy.) JANE COVERNTON PHOTO
