City to celebrate 95th birthday Sat.

Plans are taking shape to honor Edmond on its 95th birthday, scheduled for Saturday in Stephenson Park in the old Armory building.

The event will be sponsored by the newly formed Edmond Historical Society but will need a great deal of support from the community in order to be successful. Civic clubs and organizations, the Chamber of Commerce and local schools have been asked to participate in the promotion and arrangements for the celebration.

A children's covered wagon parade is scheduled to kickoff the festivities at "high noon" which is historically referred to as the time of the day the Run of '89 started. Wagons and costumes designed by school children from their studies of Oklahoma history will be displayed in the parade around the park.

Blue Grass music along with local square dance groups and country dancing will be featured entertainment under the pavillion located in the center of the park.

Inside the old Amory building a special collection of historical 1889 memorabilia and artifacts will be on display for the public.

Also inside the building a show and sale of antiques and collectibles called "The Heritage Market," sponsored by the Edmond Historic Trust, will be held in the Parade Room starting at 10 a.m.

Tickets will be sold in a drawing for a handpainted china doll dressed in heritage clothing to raise money toward a memorial marker for Milton K. Reynolds.

For a nostalgic atmosphere, a covered wagon and a restored surrey will be circling the park giving rides to both children and adults. A photographer will be on hand to capture the scene on film and take orders for pictures.

Civic clubs, organizations and school groups are encouraged to rent space on the grounds to sell concessions or promote their current fund raising projects.

The program to commemorate Edmond's 95th birthday will feature a speaker on Milton Kickingbird Reynolds. Reynolds was selected to be memorialized for his great contributions not only as one of Edmond's founding fathers, but also for his role in opening the territory for the run.

Prizes will be awarded for the best dressed 89'er. The program will include a show of vintage apparel or replicas of 89'er era clothing.

In order to promote the Edmond Historic Preservation Trust's goals of renovating the old Armory to house a historical museum for Edmond, a fund raising promotional called "Stake A Claim in Edmond's History" will be held during the day. Prominent citizens and elected officials will be "locked up" in the "Heritage Hoosegow" with a bounty set on them.
