2008 Adel Sweet Corn Festival
29th Annual Adel Sweet Corn Festival Parade
Grand Marshall
The selection of the 2008 Adel Sweet Corn Festival parade
Grand Marshall was an easy choice. The community of Adel
lost a great friend in 2008 and we could not think of a better tribute to Julia Baldon than honoring her memory in this
way.
Julia personified everything a volunteer should be! She
loved every volunteer job and was happy to do anything for
anyone. She especially loved the Sweet Corn Festival! Julia
chaired the festival for 14 years and after retiring as Chair,
she joined Adel Kiwanis Club so she could continue to be
involved with the festival.
If you are interested in participating in the Sweet
Corn Festival parade, here is some information
you need to know:
line up at 19th & Main beside the brickyard parking lot.
See map point #1 below.
• Floats proceed up Greene Street, turn north on Visions
Parkway and line up on the north side of Brickyard Road.
See map point #2.
• Walking groups gather at 18th & Brickyard. See map point
#3.
• Please do not drive west on Main or Prairie Streets to line
up!
• All entries can return to the starting point by turning right
on 11th and returning to the starting point via Greene
Street (Hwy 6). Do not try to return via Prairie Street! See
map point #4.
Parade route and line-up questions?
Call Brad at 979-4554.
Bottled Water
Adel Partners, in conjunction with the Adel Rotary, have
joined together as the official bottled water vendors for the

The Sweet Corn Festival 5K was established in 2004 to help perpetuate the memory of Danielle J. Hutzell.
Danielle was born in Adel on February 10, 1972 and died on March 8, 2000 after a courageous bout with cancer.
She graduated from Adel-DeSoto-Minburn and attended the University of Northern Iowa. While in high school,
she participated in softball, track, basketball and cheerleading. She also had a lifelong love of horses. Her adult
life was dedicated to fitness. And, it is in this context that the Sweet Corn 5K was created. In addition to providing the venue for hundreds of runners to perform in front of thousands of enthusiastic spectators, the first four
years of the race produced nearly $50,000 in charitable contributions to causes benefiting children. Visit
www.sweetcorn5k.net for a map of the race route and registration information.
