Van-Far athletes celebrated with downtown parade

Van-Far head boys track and field coach Kevin Baldwin is all smiles as his squad rides the fire truck during a state championship parade held last Thursday. Also participating in the parade were Van-Far baseball players, who recently won back-to-back district championships, and Van-Far’s golf players who are state qualifiers and also back-to-back district champions. Both the Van-Far police and fire departments were also joined by the Audrain County Sheriff’s Office in the parade.
