The CIC Car Show Committee had it's regular monthly meeting last evening. The T-Bird Club, part of this Committee, brought up their upcoming Parade. T-Bird Club President Bob Styler asked for input in naming a Parade Grand Marshall. A lively discussion followed, but after several names were presented, an overwhelming favorite came to the forefront. And that name, none other than a good friend to the OGF, CT Balsam. CT's generosity is well known and in particular, he has given strong financial support to all of the CIC Car Show Committee activities.
President Styler will drive the Grand Marshall's vehicle in the Parade allowing CT to be comfortably seated waving to the crowd.

"How did we know that CT would be the grand marshal??"
Excellent question Mark. The locals in the City have known CT's kindness and generosity for years. Here are some of his accomplishments:
1. Free delivery and setup for all Christmas Trees. Many customers are senior citizens and this service is a great help to them.
2. Free delivery of groceries and pharmaceuticals for the City's senior citizens if they are not already delivered by their store.
3. Generous senior citizen discounts for all senior citizens.
4. The CT Balsam Foundation that gives annually and generously to many worthy causes.
CT as Parade Grand Marshall, a very fitting honor.

Jim Chromey, CIC Car show Committee Chairman, announced this morning that he has selected a gorgeous 1956 Mercury Montclair Convertible to be the vehicle to carry the Grand Marshall for the upcoming T-Bird Parade in the City. Not only is this model a beauty, but the colors will blend nicely with the CIC Marching Band whose colors are red & white. Each day that goes by, this Parade becomes a bigger deal for the City and it's residents. CT Balsam as Grand Marshall is expected to be a big draw as well.
