GET SET...GO! Brother and sister Raegan Timmons and Grant Timmons prepare to dig in during the watermelon contest at the annual River View Park Social on Sunday, Aug. 3. The watermelon contest was sponsored by Warsaw Dari-Land, Designs by Michele, Dan Duren Insurance Agency, Janette Donaker, Randy Mizer Logging, Zimmer Racing, Pat Snyder, Black Bear Pizza, and McDonalds. Trophies were donated by Young’s Trophies and gift certificates were awarded from Whit’s. The Park Social was a huge success this year, despite heavy rain on and off throughout the day. Walhonding Rube Band and Chestnut Ridge Bluegrass Gospel Band also performed prior to the watermelon contest, and the community sampled some barbecued chicken provided by pb_Coshocton Beacon Ad.pdf 1 8/1/14 4:11 PM the Walhonding Valley Firefighters, noodles, sandwiches, pies, and homemade ice cream. By the end of the day, the barbecued chicken was completely sold out. The day ended with the Beaver Run Duck Race. For more photos, visit www.coshoctonbeacontoday.com BEACON PHOTO BY BETH SCOTT
