07/02/2008





Join the DFL float and TeamFranken on the 4th of July!

Volunteers will be gathering for several parades this Thursday and Friday and we invite you to join us on behalf of the Franken campaign or your favorite DFL candidate. We will have TeamFranken shirts, signs and stickers available. Other candidates will also have literature, stickers and pins to hand out during the parade. Franken tshirts may be limited, so RSVP to Chelsie at or call her at 507.382.9879 if you think you will be able to make it to any of the parades this weekend. Also, feel free to contact her if you have any questions about these parades or any other upcoming Franken events.


Thursday evening, join Franni Franken and Joe Franken (Al & Franni's son) in Albert Lea for the 3rd of July parade. Volunteers will be meeting with the DFL float at the fairgrounds. We are lining up at 5:15 and the parade will be taking off at 6:00 pm.

Friday morning, we will be kicking off the 4th of July in St. Peter with Joe Franken. Volunteers will be meeting with the DFL float one block North of Broadway. We are lining up at 9:00 am and the parade is beginning at 10:00 am.

Joe Franken and TeamFranken will then be heading over to Elysian. The volunteers will be meeting fellow DFL candidates at the school. We are lining up at 1:00 and the parade begins at 2:00.

TeamFranken volunteers will also be joining fellow DFLer's at the Harmony parade. They are lining up at the community center at 2:15 pm and the parade will be starting at 3:00 pm.

The next stop for TeamFranken volunteers will be the Vernon Center parade. It's a small town, so you won't be able to miss the parade lineup. The DFLer's will be lining up at 4:30 and the parade begins at 5:00.

Joe Franken and TeamFranken volunteers will be ending their 4th of July swing in Stewartville. The DFL float will be lining up at the highschool at 6:00pm and the parade begins at 7:00pm.

Parades are a great way to show your support for your DFL candidates and we hope we get to see you!
