On Saturday, November 10th Miss Frisco, Brooks Dennard and Miss Frisco Outstanding Teen, Lea Ciskowksi were on hand to help honor our Veterans by participating in the Frisco Community Parade.

Congressman Sam Johnson of the 3rd District of Texas served as the Grand Marshall. He is a 29 year veteran and decorated hero of the Korean War who survived 7 years in a POW camp.

The Frisco Community Parade is a long standing tradition and one that has evolved as the town has grown. Long time Frisco residents remember the annual homecoming parade as one of the big events of a small but fast growing town, where thousands of Frisco residents and families lined Main Street to honor the schools, football teams, bands and community organizations that participated. It has been a tradition that has grown each year and one that the Parade Committee wanted to make sure continued.

The Miss Plano Frisco Organization was proud to participate again this year in honoring Veteran’s Day and participating in the annual parade which was also a Salute to Our Troops.
